Latest / Wicked Radio with Bill Adams / Wicked Radio 12-19: Brown Killer Found - The Deadly Cost Of Incompetence. & Trump The Pot POTUS?!
Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: But now that the Brown and Mit, as it turns out,
- 0:08Speaker 1: story's connected shooter scumbag has been caught. What did we
- 0:11Speaker 1: learn about this whole affair? What's the takeaway on this? Well,
- 0:14Speaker 1: I'm telling you this was a lesson in deadly incompetence.
- 0:18Speaker 1: In fact, I'd like to suggest this just kind of
- 0:20Speaker 1: popped into my head. Let's rename DEI to deadly everyday incompetence,
- 0:24Speaker 1: because that's what we learned here. And there's a reason
- 0:26Speaker 1: why this story lasted so long. First of First of all,
- 0:30Speaker 1: is because they couldn't find this person. We know all
- 0:32Speaker 1: about that, we know about the details and the security
- 0:34Speaker 1: cameras and all the other stuff, until they finally found
- 0:37Speaker 1: him dead shot himself. We get that, But what was
- 0:40Speaker 1: the real reason why people paid such close attention to
- 0:42Speaker 1: this story? For what was the six seven days in
- 0:44Speaker 1: a row? First and foremost, human nature being what it is.
- 0:47Speaker 1: People love true crime, a caper, a you know, a mystery, right,
- 0:50Speaker 1: That's just what it is. People love that kind of crap.
- 0:53Speaker 1: The second thing was more important. I think this was
- 0:56Speaker 1: a true wake up call. This was one of those
- 0:57Speaker 1: stories you see, you know, academic government, of course, even
- 1:03Speaker 1: corporate incompetence every day. We've all felt it, we've all
- 1:06Speaker 1: seen it. This was a glaring example of how deadly
- 1:09Speaker 1: it can be. That's what I think got people to
- 1:11Speaker 1: keep tuning into this Brown University story throughout the entire
- 1:16Speaker 1: thing and beyond and still will because I think for
- 1:19Speaker 1: the most part, not you, not me, because we've seen
- 1:21Speaker 1: this stuff, but for most people who just don't pay attention,
- 1:24Speaker 1: I think this was a wake up call and they realized,
- 1:26Speaker 1: my god, what kind of people do we have in
- 1:29Speaker 1: charge in major institutions. Anyway, we'll give you the tale
- 1:32Speaker 1: of the tape in that one. Also, here's a fun story.
- 1:34Speaker 1: My favorite story of the week so far is Trump
- 1:36Speaker 1: going to be known as the pot potus the pot President.
- 1:42Speaker 1: And what's been fun for me is to watch the
- 1:43Speaker 1: reaction from this from a lot of Trump supporters because
- 1:46Speaker 1: they're really divided on this one. So he rescheduled it
- 1:49Speaker 1: yesterday at the executive order which you probably signed. The
- 1:51Speaker 1: reaction has been fun on this, but this is reason
- 1:53Speaker 1: why he did it. And to wrap it up, we
- 1:55Speaker 1: are less than a week away from Christmas now, so
- 1:57Speaker 1: that means you are who are really in the holiday
- 2:01Speaker 1: travel season right now? So if you're flying anywhere, the
- 2:03Speaker 1: TSA has some travel advice for you, which is actually
- 2:06Speaker 1: they're doing a really good job of public outreach. We'll
- 2:08Speaker 1: talk about that extra finder, Wicked Radio, the live stream
- 2:11Speaker 1: and the replay lives on, and all your favorite social
- 2:13Speaker 1: media channels in the audio podcast too, wherever you like
- 2:16Speaker 1: to get him. Let's get right into it, all right,
- 2:18Speaker 1: tailor of the tape. What do we know? Who is
- 2:19Speaker 1: this scumbag that they finally caught, Well, well they did
- 2:23Speaker 1: catch him technically right, wound up shooting himself in a
- 2:27Speaker 1: warehouse in Salem, New Hampshire. So this thing crossed a
- 2:32Speaker 1: few different New England states. Anyway, here's the Let's start
- 2:35Speaker 1: with the press conference yesterday from the police chief who
- 2:40Speaker 1: was talking about who the suspect was.
- 2:42Speaker 2: An individual was identified as Claudio Nevis Valenti Dato birth
- 2:49Speaker 2: and he was a forty eight year old man. He
- 2:53Speaker 2: was a Brown student. He was a Portuguese national and
- 2:57Speaker 2: he's last name Noan Adres, was in Miami, FLOWERDA. And
- 3:01Speaker 2: I will tell you that he took his own life tonight.
- 3:04Speaker 2: We have members of the Province Police Department up in Salem,
- 3:06Speaker 2: mass New Hampshire, and we also have the BCI unit.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Obviously the FBI and their evidence recovery unit is up there.
- 3:14Speaker 1: All right, letting you know by now the condom you know,
- 3:16Speaker 1: they did track him down, so I can technically say
- 3:18Speaker 1: caught him because the state police there in Massachusetts did finally,
- 3:21Speaker 1: you know, they did a good job and they rushed
- 3:22Speaker 1: into the building. The coward, scumbag shot himself. Whatever, but
- 3:26Speaker 1: you heard there from the police chief. More on him
- 3:28Speaker 1: at a second talking about this. From the original investigation had
- 3:32Speaker 1: been a Brown student was readmitted into the physics PhD program,
- 3:35Speaker 1: not a US national. And now we know confirmed by
- 3:39Speaker 1: all news sources and the investigators that this shooting was
- 3:42Speaker 1: indeed connected to the MIT shooting which happened a couple
- 3:45Speaker 1: of days later. If he didn't follow that story, there
- 3:47Speaker 1: was an MIT professor who was shot in his home
- 3:50Speaker 1: in Massachusetts. Connected. Now connected might tell you avoidable? Avoidable?
- 3:57Speaker 1: How bill who could have known? Well, nobody could have
- 4:00Speaker 1: known except the ridiculous scumbag shooter. But you know what
- 4:03Speaker 1: would have prevented that if you had cameras around campus,
- 4:08Speaker 1: any id anything. They weren't holding anything back what they
- 4:11Speaker 1: had they showed you remember when they asked for the
- 4:13Speaker 1: public's help and finding this guy. And that was off
- 4:16Speaker 1: of ring doorbell cameras and business cameras that happened to
- 4:20Speaker 1: be around the area, not on campus, because as we
- 4:23Speaker 1: talked about yesterday, that is confirmed those cameras were disabled.
- 4:27Speaker 1: They didn't even exist because in the summer of twenty
- 4:30Speaker 1: twenty five, not too long ago, it was in August,
- 4:33Speaker 1: those cameras were disabled bright Brown University because of civil
- 4:36Speaker 1: rights groups, human rights groups, mostly as we found out
- 4:40Speaker 1: in the news stories last night, reportedly from pro Palestinian
- 4:44Speaker 1: groups who pressured Dei, head of Brown you'll hear from
- 4:49Speaker 1: her here in a second, to take them down, okay,
- 4:53Speaker 1: so they could protest and not be identified and threaten
- 4:56Speaker 1: other people. And you know the whole story, right, But
- 4:58Speaker 1: the great thing of one of the great things it's
- 5:00Speaker 1: come out of this whole thing, besides people waking up
- 5:02Speaker 1: to the deadly effects of incompetence, and Dei was the
- 5:07Speaker 1: reporters as well on the scene start to finish all
- 5:10Speaker 1: of them. We heard from that that Hispanic radio host
- 5:12Speaker 1: yesterday just grilling these people. And then there's this guy
- 5:15Speaker 1: grilling the president at a Brown university about disabling disabling
- 5:19Speaker 1: those cameras. Fantastic video played a big.
- 5:21Speaker 3: Role in this case, the neighbor's video, the rental car video,
- 5:26Speaker 3: but not the video from the building that he walked
- 5:29Speaker 3: in freely, both before when he got into confrontation and when.
- 5:32Speaker 1: He came back and decided to kill people. You didn't
- 5:36Speaker 1: have cameras in that building. Just say it so we
- 5:39Speaker 1: can get this over.
- 5:40Speaker 4: And my next question is will the cameras in that building? Yeah,
- 5:46Speaker 4: you know, I I think we need to look back.
- 5:48Speaker 4: We'll look at everything that is done. But I do
- 5:50Speaker 4: not think a lack of cameras in that building it
- 5:54Speaker 4: had anything to do with what happened there.
- 5:56Speaker 1: And we will go for no. No, no, it's just
- 6:01Speaker 1: you know, you could have caught him before that. And
- 6:02Speaker 1: let's remember the timeline here. You could have an MIT
- 6:05Speaker 1: professor alive today if you had actual working security cameras
- 6:08Speaker 1: and you were able to catch this shooter right away,
- 6:10Speaker 1: you know, But that had nothing to do with anything.
- 6:14Speaker 1: You're gonna hear this word a lot in competence, deadly incompetence. No,
- 6:19Speaker 1: it had nothing to do with this. And then she
- 6:20Speaker 1: just scurries away, by the way, and that's an administrator
- 6:22Speaker 1: DEI administrator making close to three and a half million
- 6:25Speaker 1: dollars a year. That's neither here nor there. I just
- 6:27Speaker 1: thought i'd throw that out there, Okay, but it had
- 6:29Speaker 1: nothing to do with anything, Okay, right. Let me ask
- 6:31Speaker 1: you this for the legal experts in the audience, and
- 6:33Speaker 1: you can throw a comment at me or a DM
- 6:37Speaker 1: or whatever it is. Would it be possible now that
- 6:39Speaker 1: we know and it's been confirmed that Brown University disabled
- 6:42Speaker 1: the security cameras they couldn't catch this guy family of
- 6:45Speaker 1: the MIT professor who was killed a couple of days
- 6:49Speaker 1: later by apparently this same guy, would they be able
- 6:51Speaker 1: to go back and sue Brown University for negligence because
- 6:56Speaker 1: they weren't able to identify this guy because they disabled
- 6:59Speaker 1: the security again, like, is that a real thing that
- 7:00Speaker 1: would ever happen in the legal world? Could you sue
- 7:03Speaker 1: another uh uh university because they were so incompetent. I
- 7:08Speaker 1: don't know whether that's possible or whether they'd even win.
- 7:11Speaker 1: I would love to see it happen, though, again deadly
- 7:15Speaker 1: incompetence in the cost. This is what we learned, and
- 7:17Speaker 1: this is what he Here's the good thing. This is
- 7:19Speaker 1: where these kinds of things change. When most of the
- 7:22Speaker 1: country wakes up to this and demands change. You stop
- 7:24Speaker 1: sending your kids. By the way, that started to happen
- 7:27Speaker 1: to apparently some very high academic recruits, you know at
- 7:32Speaker 1: the Ivy League schools. They go out and they recruit
- 7:34Speaker 1: like the smartest kids they do because they want them
- 7:36Speaker 1: in their university. They've gotten a couple of turndowns after
- 7:39Speaker 1: this because of lack of security. That's interesting. But the
- 7:42Speaker 1: rest of the country wakes up to this and realizes
- 7:44Speaker 1: how incompetent they are. We're realizing this, and it's scary
- 7:47Speaker 1: at first, but the first step in the process is
- 7:49Speaker 1: realizing how bad the situation is and then you start
- 7:53Speaker 1: to fix it. All right, So we've got that going on.
- 7:55Speaker 1: But let's let's now that we've all followed this story,
- 7:58Speaker 1: let's get the tail of the tape. So far, you
- 7:59Speaker 1: just turn from the university president total incompetent, obviously, can't
- 8:03Speaker 1: even ask a question. Just when enough of these people
- 8:06Speaker 1: are exposed every single day and they have to answer
- 8:08Speaker 1: questions and don't you know exactly what they're all about.
- 8:11Speaker 1: So you've got her clearly obviously in incompetent DEI hire
- 8:17Speaker 1: the security cams issue now has been confirmed disabled because
- 8:21Speaker 1: of public pressure by human rights groups, pro Palestinian groups,
- 8:25Speaker 1: pro Hamas groups, whatever they held, a pro immigration group,
- 8:29Speaker 1: some kind of group pressured them to do that. We
- 8:31Speaker 1: know that now they had no security cameras. They weren't
- 8:33Speaker 1: just withholding anything that they had. They had nothing to
- 8:38Speaker 1: provide security for these kids. Okay, but let's talk about
- 8:41Speaker 1: the police chief who you heard of. First of all,
- 8:43Speaker 1: let's talk about this guy. And this is why I
- 8:45Speaker 1: talk about this crisis of incompetence. They're a glaring example
- 8:49Speaker 1: of it. The scary thing is this is probably every
- 8:52Speaker 1: blue city that has a major university in the country,
- 8:55Speaker 1: probably every single one, but Brown has it all. And
- 8:58Speaker 1: we saw it every single day. The police chief, let's
- 9:01Speaker 1: see what he's all about. Well, first and foremost, when
- 9:04Speaker 1: he got the job, he worked with the mayor more
- 9:07Speaker 1: in him at a second whose main goal was to
- 9:09Speaker 1: diversify the department. That means less white people. We know
- 9:14Speaker 1: that now, but okay, that is what it is. Also,
- 9:17Speaker 1: as a nephew, this police chief does who we heard
- 9:19Speaker 1: from every single day, who is busted in one of
- 9:21Speaker 1: the largest fentanyl rings in Rhode Island state history. He's
- 9:25Speaker 1: in jail now serving twenty two years. That's the nephew
- 9:28Speaker 1: of the police chief. Just throwing that out there in
- 9:32Speaker 1: the press conference. If you paid attention to these, the
- 9:34Speaker 1: Providence City Council chief of staff showed up a couple
- 9:38Speaker 1: of times he or she well, I don't know what
- 9:41Speaker 1: it is because it's a genderless bisexual that was also
- 9:48Speaker 1: arrested earlier at a Trump Tower protest. Providence City Council
- 9:52Speaker 1: chief of staff. Again, I'm just throwing all these out there.
- 9:56Speaker 1: And then you got Mayor Smiley. You heard Mayor Smiley,
- 9:58Speaker 1: the one who said on day two, we don't have
- 10:00Speaker 1: any more answers for you. We're tired, Okay, a goat
- 10:04Speaker 1: to work with the police chief in that department to
- 10:08Speaker 1: diversify less white, and also the entire city administration to
- 10:13Speaker 1: diversify as well. So these are the priorities, not security,
- 10:16Speaker 1: not safety. And you saw this played out for six
- 10:18Speaker 1: seven straight days with these press conferences. Deadly incompetence is
- 10:23Speaker 1: what the entire country learned about this all on display
- 10:26Speaker 1: right there. But I'm here to tell you what you
- 10:29Speaker 1: always have to ask yourself the question with these horrible stories,
- 10:32Speaker 1: what's great about this what can we take from this?
- 10:35Speaker 1: What's great about this is you've been aware of this
- 10:37Speaker 1: for a long time, but now a big trust me,
- 10:40Speaker 1: this is a massively followed story. A big chunk of
- 10:44Speaker 1: the country is now aware of this kind of incompetence.
- 10:46Speaker 1: That's the first step to getting rid of it. That's
- 10:48Speaker 1: the first step to demanding people who are competent start
- 10:52Speaker 1: to get jobs in major institutions because they because these
- 10:55Speaker 1: people like what we saw with Brown University and Providence
- 10:58Speaker 1: itself all working together. They ain't it absolutely horrible? Oh
- 11:03Speaker 1: on one of their senators, by the way, White House,
- 11:05Speaker 1: So what the hell is his name? Whitehorse? Who told
- 11:07Speaker 1: everybody to shut up and stop asking questions. So the
- 11:11Speaker 1: incompetence from that state and that city, in that university
- 11:14Speaker 1: pretty much can be expanded to the entire administration, the
- 11:17Speaker 1: whole state. Rhode Island's a mess. But now they're not
- 11:19Speaker 1: the only one. It's a wake up call, that's all
- 11:22Speaker 1: I'm saying. All Right, let's get to a fun story.
- 11:25Speaker 1: But I'll admit it. I said this in the introduction.
- 11:28Speaker 1: For me, it's been fun to watch and hear from
- 11:32Speaker 1: the very ardent strong Trump supporters to hear the reaction
- 11:37Speaker 1: to him becoming He's even been called this the pot potus,
- 11:42Speaker 1: the pot President. This is very divisive, but he went
- 11:46Speaker 1: ahead and he did it because he's interesting in his
- 11:48Speaker 1: second term, because he doesn't have to get elected again
- 11:51Speaker 1: and he pretty much just does what he knows and
- 11:53Speaker 1: feels is right. So this was the announcement yesterday. Let
- 11:57Speaker 1: me just give this to you. This was the This
- 11:59Speaker 1: was the Reek classification of marijuana from a Schedule one
- 12:03Speaker 1: to something way less dangerous. Here's his reason. Why has
- 12:05Speaker 1: he signed for.
- 12:06Speaker 5: The same time, The facts compel the federal government to
- 12:09Speaker 5: recognize that marijuana can be legitimate in terms of medical
- 12:14Speaker 5: applications when carefully administered. In some cases, this may include
- 12:19Speaker 5: the use as a substitute for addictive and potentially lethal
- 12:22Speaker 5: opioid painkillers, and they cause tremendous problems.
- 12:26Speaker 6: This can do it in a much lesser.
- 12:28Speaker 5: Way, can make people feel much better that are living
- 12:34Speaker 5: through tremendous pain and problems.
- 12:36Speaker 1: Now I've seen it as soon as this happened, actually
- 12:38Speaker 1: before even made the announcement, because we knew it was coming.
- 12:41Speaker 1: And last night, but especially this morning, I saw a
- 12:45Speaker 1: lot of comments from very strong Trump account like Trump's surrogates.
- 12:50Speaker 1: There's some people who are online and and made a
- 12:51Speaker 1: living from just supporting Trump. I mean, that's what they do,
- 12:54Speaker 1: and that's fine. Whatever. A lot of people saying a
- 12:57Speaker 1: lot of those particular people saying tree Trump has it
- 13:00Speaker 1: wrong in this one. He's a great president, but he
- 13:02Speaker 1: has it wrong on this one. I get that. Now. Listen,
- 13:05Speaker 1: let me get this part of it out of the
- 13:06Speaker 1: way first, before we talk about the benefits. I would
- 13:09Speaker 1: agree with you that it's not for everybody. And if
- 13:15Speaker 1: you're somebody that says that driving on the roads just
- 13:18Speaker 1: notice over the past five years has gotten worse, blaming
- 13:21Speaker 1: that on pot smokers or you know, marijuana users THC,
- 13:24Speaker 1: I would agree with you too. I think, hands down
- 13:27Speaker 1: driving has gotten worse because the pot. Lovey told us
- 13:30Speaker 1: for the longest time it doesn't have an effect at all.
- 13:33Speaker 1: I don't know about that.
- 13:33Speaker 6: Okay.
- 13:34Speaker 1: Now, with all of that said, With that said, and
- 13:37Speaker 1: I know this, people still think it's a gateway drug,
- 13:39Speaker 1: and maybe it is. Whatever is also the argument that
- 13:41Speaker 1: today's pot is not your dad's weeds. It's way stronger
- 13:46Speaker 1: because they can they can, they refined it, they've they've
- 13:49Speaker 1: perfected it. I get that too, But for what he's
- 13:52Speaker 1: talking about here, right, when you declassify it and take
- 13:55Speaker 1: it off of a what is it, Schedule one or whatever,
- 13:57Speaker 1: the most dangerous thing, you can't compare that. You can't
- 14:01Speaker 1: put marijuana or THHC at the same level as all
- 14:04Speaker 1: these other drugs like narcotics. You can't do it. We
- 14:07Speaker 1: also know this for a fact that a lot of
- 14:09Speaker 1: people have been helped like that, cancer patients, people who
- 14:12Speaker 1: otherwise would have gone on opioids, people who are in
- 14:14Speaker 1: severe pain. He said it right there in the press
- 14:16Speaker 1: conference as he's signing that reclassification. He said it right
- 14:19Speaker 1: there that we know for effect, it's a no matter
- 14:23Speaker 1: how you feel about marijuana, it is a hell of
- 14:26Speaker 1: a lot better than opioids. People going on in opioids, right,
- 14:30Speaker 1: And there's also this factor to it. A lot of
- 14:32Speaker 1: this push to keep him from doing this is coming
- 14:35Speaker 1: from those pharmaceutical companies who want to keep pushing opioids
- 14:38Speaker 1: on people. We all remember that if you ever saw
- 14:41Speaker 1: the movie Dope Sick, they were popular. They were handing
- 14:44Speaker 1: out opioids to people in pain, pills like they were
- 14:47Speaker 1: pez dispensers. For christ sake. Okay, we know that for
- 14:51Speaker 1: a fact as well. There's another factor in this that
- 14:54Speaker 1: he talked about just the other day that I never
- 14:56Speaker 1: even realized. If you take it away from the most
- 15:00Speaker 1: dangerous drug classification, if you kind of downgrade that a
- 15:02Speaker 1: little bit, it also opens up more federal research for
- 15:05Speaker 1: the benefits. So I get that people are upset about this,
- 15:09Speaker 1: more so than I even expected. I understand that. But
- 15:14Speaker 1: there's a lot more benefits to this what he signed here,
- 15:17Speaker 1: And you can't, regardless, you can't classify this thing just
- 15:21Speaker 1: as dangerous as those other drugs are opioids. You can't
- 15:23Speaker 1: do it. So there he is, that's what he signed it.
- 15:26Speaker 1: But there was another nugget same press conference, because he
- 15:28Speaker 1: had all the doctors behind him, Doctor Oz was there,
- 15:30Speaker 1: one of the questions popped up, and I was so
- 15:32Speaker 1: glad it did. This isn't going away because they keep
- 15:35Speaker 1: teasing they're going to do something big. And I'm telling
- 15:37Speaker 1: you now as I sit here today on this particular barstool,
- 15:40Speaker 1: if this guy in his administration is able to get
- 15:45Speaker 1: Congress off their asses and do something about healthcare insurance,
- 15:50Speaker 1: this is the one this is the one, one and
- 15:54Speaker 1: only issue that will get your Trump hating friends and
- 15:57Speaker 1: family members or parents or kids to vote for Trump
- 16:05Speaker 1: supported congress people and maybe JD Vance next. This would
- 16:08Speaker 1: get this would get secretly and quietly, This would get
- 16:11Speaker 1: them to support this administration if they're able to fix
- 16:16Speaker 1: health insurance set it again just yesterday. There is a
- 16:19Speaker 1: plan in the works, it seems, would like how to be.
- 16:23Speaker 6: Able to do it. I'd like to get right into this,
- 16:25Speaker 6: and I'd ask Oz this question in particular, but I'd
- 16:28Speaker 6: like to see us get right into this. I don't
- 16:30Speaker 6: know why we have to extend. This could be done
- 16:32Speaker 6: rapidly if the Democrats would come along. We have a problem.
- 16:35Speaker 6: The insurance companies own the Democrat Party. They own it,
- 16:42Speaker 6: and the Democrats having a hard time. They give a
- 16:44Speaker 6: lot of money to the Democrats, very little money to Republicans,
- 16:47Speaker 6: by the way, a lot of money to Democrats. And
- 16:50Speaker 6: they're going to have to decide do they want to
- 16:52Speaker 6: do the right thing or do they want to be
- 16:54Speaker 6: be hauled into the you know, insurance companies. They're making
- 16:58Speaker 6: a fortune. The money to go to the people go
- 17:01Speaker 6: ahead to us.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Wow, I'm telling you, this is the one. This is
- 17:06Speaker 1: the This should be okay. In a perfect world, if
- 17:09Speaker 1: we were, if we had our senses about us in
- 17:11Speaker 1: this country. We don't right now. It's a lack of
- 17:12Speaker 1: common sense. This should be the unifying issue. This should
- 17:15Speaker 1: be the one issue. Who find me, Somebody find me,
- 17:18Speaker 1: anybody in your life, or somebody work with some of
- 17:20Speaker 1: your friends with online. That's like I think health insurance
- 17:23Speaker 1: industry is doing a great job. Find me one. They
- 17:26Speaker 1: don't exist. Everybody hates them. This should be the unifying issue.
- 17:30Speaker 1: These greedy bastards that have screwed up this system so badly.
- 17:34Speaker 1: This is the one the unifying issue. I will say
- 17:37Speaker 1: this again secretly, quietly. This would be the one and
- 17:42Speaker 1: only issue that would get your Trump hating friends or
- 17:44Speaker 1: family to actually support this president. They'll never say it
- 17:47Speaker 1: out loud ever, but if they are able to actually
- 17:50Speaker 1: fix this during his three years left, they would give
- 17:54Speaker 1: the thumbs up to this. That would be amazing, the
- 17:56Speaker 1: one and only issue I think anyway. All right, let's
- 17:59Speaker 1: get to something fun. First of all, it's Friday. Your
- 18:01Speaker 1: weekend is right around the corner. It's also a big,
- 18:03Speaker 1: big travel weekend. In fact, one of my little ducklings
- 18:05Speaker 1: came home last night. I'm all excited about that. But
- 18:08Speaker 1: I will say this, the TSA is doing it. The TSA,
- 18:12Speaker 1: of all organizations, is doing a really good job with
- 18:14Speaker 1: public information. Would you expected that the Transportation Security Administration
- 18:20Speaker 1: to be good on X because I didn't see that coming.
- 18:23Speaker 1: But anyway, they are reaching out with answering people's questions,
- 18:28Speaker 1: like really, well, they're doing that. They're also doing this.
- 18:32Speaker 1: They've got a whole tip line for you for things
- 18:34Speaker 1: not to do for this very busy travel season. And
- 18:36Speaker 1: by the way, they're saying that this is gonna be
- 18:37Speaker 1: the busiest, not just on the roads, busiest travel season
- 18:41Speaker 1: by air of all time. Number one. These are all
- 18:44Speaker 1: obvious things. Don't wrap your gifts. If it triggers the alarm,
- 18:47Speaker 1: they're gonna have to open it. You see that every
- 18:50Speaker 1: single year. That's just the And these are all obvious.
- 18:52Speaker 1: Guys traveling with food, some like fruitcake, candy canes, chocolates
- 18:55Speaker 1: they can go. And you carry on liquids and spreadable
- 18:58Speaker 1: foods like eggnog. People travel with eggnog, champagne, wine, sauces.
- 19:03Speaker 1: You gotta be packaged in checked bags. Remember you need
- 19:06Speaker 1: real ID. If you didn't get that by now, when
- 19:08Speaker 1: you're in doubt, send them a DM. This is what's
- 19:10Speaker 1: amazing to me about this. TSA has been active on
- 19:14Speaker 1: x for this entire travel season from before Thanksgiving to now.
- 19:17Speaker 1: If you've got a question of what you can do
- 19:19Speaker 1: and you can't bring on a flight, send them a
- 19:21Speaker 1: DA a DM to this check it out at at
- 19:25Speaker 1: ask TSA, at ask TSA or text travel and the
- 19:30Speaker 1: number is two seven eight excuse me, two seven five
- 19:33Speaker 1: dash eight seven two two seven five dash eight seven
- 19:36Speaker 1: to two. Good for them, Good for them in servicing
- 19:39Speaker 1: the public. I think that's fantastic that they're doing that.
- 19:41Speaker 1: But traveling with eggnock. Really, I didn't know anybody still
- 19:47Speaker 1: drink ignock except there's some booze in it or whatever.
- 19:49Speaker 1: All Right, the big takeaway what we saw with the
- 19:51Speaker 1: whole Brown University thing and the MIT story that's connected
- 19:53Speaker 1: now and everything that happened there up. The reason why
- 19:57Speaker 1: people followed this story is more than true crime. It's
- 20:00Speaker 1: because most of the nation, outside of you, because you've
- 20:02Speaker 1: been aware of this the whole time, most of the nation,
- 20:05Speaker 1: for the first real time, in real life action, is
- 20:10Speaker 1: seeing the deadly consequence of incompetence, and that's how it starts.
- 20:14Speaker 1: Being aware of that so that's your takeaway on that.
- 20:16Speaker 1: Most importantly, though, it's your weekend. Have a great, safe weekend,
- 20:19Speaker 1: especially if you're traveling. Like we just said, thanks for
