• 1:39
  Speaker 5: it depends on if it's a scramble, and I don't
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: think it is. If it's a scramble, then a lot
• 1:42

  Speaker 2: Dab.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: That's a big deal. And you guys, and this is

  Speaker 4: only like seventeen years in the making, right, twelve O twelve?
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: It is twelve.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: Oh, this is exciting.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: It is very exciting.
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: So she is four weeks away from a wedding that
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: she is planning and organizing.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Uh huh.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: And out of those.
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: Let's see twenty work days, covit is gonna be gone
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: for eight of them.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: Giving work for deb to do.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: That is awfully kind of him, isn't it.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: But hey, don't let that generous guy over there let
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: himself off the hook, because he's also going to be
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: gone for seven of those days.
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: Colbert stole my birthday week, so I had to take
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: the week after.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Wow, imagine if that you told him you were having
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: a baby, they would just leave the whole show to you.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: First month, they would right maternity.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: And I got to tell you, Deb, I don't know
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: if Jack knows this, but I am, as of a
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: couple months ago, the father of an engaged daughter. Oh wow,
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: we're still like a year away.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: And I know.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: I was literally last night I was getting spreadsheets on
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: who's on the invite and maybe invite lists and stuff.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: So I can't imagine what you have going through just
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: four weeks out.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: It's crazy because even though you're saying we're going we're
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: going to do this simply, We're going to do this
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: as inexpensively as possible, once you say the word wedding,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: everything goes up by times three.
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: You just said four words that I have not yet
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: heard come out of my wife and daughter's mouth, as
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: inexpensively as possible.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Yet, no, holy balls, weddings are expensive.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Do you know what the average cost is in twenty
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: twenty six? This is average cost of a wedding in
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty six.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Top to a guy who's in the middle of PAM
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: for one.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: I'm going to say it's like fifty grand Actually it's
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: thirty six. Yeah, and that's and there's and that's probably
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: is including some people who are going to the courthouse, right. Yeah,
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: Because when they went and shopped venues in Saint Augustine,
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: I'll leave out the exact number for posterity sake, but
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: I took a guess on what the venue. This was
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: not the food, this was not the bar, this was
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: not the meal, this was this was not anything except
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: the venue. I took a guess, which was heartily into
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: five figures. And my wife and daughter began cackling, did they?
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: And I should say they are actually super cost conscious,
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: both of them are. But not only is it extremely expensive.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: When they were looking at venues they wanted in Saint
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: Augustine in April of twenty twenty seven, some of the
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: venues were like, well, we got one Wednesday and one Sunday.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: And that's that's the other esue A year away. A
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: year away.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Actually, the first time I was married, I was married
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: in Saint Augustine.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: You're saying that doesn't work.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it didn't. Take let the ink on the
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: check dry and just send it in.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: I think they're doing something pretty creative and cute. They're
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: planning on that the Fountain of Youth, Oh cool, Yeah,
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: which is a vintage Saint Augustine that now has a
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: nice wedding venue. So anyway, anyway, I managed to make
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: this about me. That is very exciting. And I know
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: you have a lot going on.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, oh it's it's incredible.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: And you know between the emails and all the you know,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: things you have to do and the but the important
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: thing is, and what we keep telling ourselves and our

• 8:12
  Speaker 3: But you did bring up something interesting that you did
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: before you got here to the station this afternoon.
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: Well, I was Jack's asked what I was up to,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: and I had decided I need to eat a little something.
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: And so I was standing at the kitchen island eating
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: four old chicken wings because that's the kind of classy guy.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: AM didn't eat them up.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Just cold it right over the garbage can.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: And I found myself so happy standing in my pajamas
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: eating my cold chicken wings that it dawned on me
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: that if I was on death row, I am pretty
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: sure my meal would be a greasy cheeseburger, probably a
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: smash burger, and a side order a chicken wings.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: And it made me wonder what you guys would choose.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: You know, it's funny you say that whenever I go
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: to a restaurant and I order a big potato and
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: they ask if I want it loaded, I say, yeah,
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: load it like I'm on death row.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: There you go, there you go.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: I don't want to save any other butter, the soeur
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: cream or the bacon crumbles.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Just load it like I'm on death row. I'm a
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: fan of the smash burger, that's a that's a good time.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Chicken wings. But I need to add onion rings. Is
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: it with you lately? Onion rings?
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: I've rediscovered my love for onion rings and thin ones.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: Yes, we're talking about onion rings, not women.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Jack, Well, that's not what I was thinking.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: I like, i'im crispy.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: He is right, A thick onion ring is horrible.
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: I don't want that want I'm crispy.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's just a si. I think that
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: works with my meal. That's just sort of a side.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: So you're going to have onion rings, chicken wings, and
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: a smash burger. Why not? Right?
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: And more importantly, I'm suggesting that Jack and I will
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: be on death row together.
• 9:46
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: Yes, for some sort of venous double.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: Murker felm on luise moment here.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: Got real worried about my cholester all this point exactly.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: And by the way, the other thing that blew my
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: mind because while I was thinking about my death row meal,
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: then I began googling, and I was kind of blown
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: away to find out that is still a thing that
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: a majority of states still grant.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: So we're going to kill you tomorrow.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: But which wants I want to shake?
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: Maybe primary before, but uh, some states, I think this
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: is still the case.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: In Florida, there's like a forty dollars cap.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: Oh really on your meal before we and the lobster.
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it'd be a cheap one.
• 10:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't say I need a sandwich from Permante
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: Brothers in Pittsburgh.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I am surprised Jack that you didn't pick pizza.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: Well, you want to make sure it's right. And I'm
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: afraid I don't know. The pizzeria is near the prison
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: they're holding me at.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: That so greasy pizza.
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: Great, but it can wreck your intestines and man, that
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: is not what you want to happen before that.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Sure you do leave a little gift before you go.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of anyway, Thank you, executioner. Here's
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: a little something for you.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but I think, well, I just love me some good, juicy,
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: crispy chicken wings.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Chicken wings. Yeah, yeah, willing to die for him? Huh

  Speaker 11: clean up.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, right up there with the text that someone
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: sends us at seven seven zero three one. My last
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: meal would be something really messy on the way out,
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: if you know what I mean, maybe some stale expired
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: gas station sushi.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: And some Taco Bell gas station sushi. Yeah, it says
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: it all you're asking for it there.
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Jim Colbert. So Jim's taking a
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: few days off. He'll be back with us next week.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: You've got dev Jack and our special guest co host today,
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: Scott Maxwell.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Thank you again, Scott.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: My pleasure, glad to be here.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Now let's do some JCS news.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: It's time for JCS news.
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: This guy gotta put his name on everything.
• 13:52
  Speaker 12: It's in my contracted juice, the news on the Jim
• 13:55
  Speaker 12: Colberg Show.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: I don't know why it still makes me laugh, but
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: it still makes me laugh. JCS News is brought to
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: you by that mortgage guy Don all Right, social media
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: giants may have to make major changes after being found
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: liable for addicting kids to their platforms.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: This mother cheered the verdict.
• 14:12
  Speaker 13: This is going to help us in our efforts and
• 14:14
  Speaker 13: educating the public, educating families in our communities, and driving that.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: Change that we sell destined to.
• 14:21
  Speaker 14: Be need on these platforms.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: This after the jury in Los Angeles sided with the plaintiff,
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: a young woman in the landmark federal trial involving Instagram's
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: parent company Meta and YouTube's parent company Google. She accused
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: the companies of designing their platforms to get her hooked
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: early on, leading to depression and suil saddle thoughts into adulthood.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: She was awarded three million dollars in damages for the
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: negligence involving the companies now Snapchat and TikTok they previously
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: settled with her. The case was being watched closely because
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: it's seen as a test case by hundreds of similar
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: lawsuits across the US.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Still pending.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: Of course, we had that other decision last night from
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: New Mexico that also found Meta liable for this, so
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: it'll be interesting to see how the dominoes may or
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: may not fall around the rest of the country.
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and which one?
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: You had two companies that decided to settle, which is
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: a quiet admission of guilt, yes, it seems, and then
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: two found guilty, So you know.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: Which one is more damaging to the companies.
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: I think the guilty verdict, they would probably say, is
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: more damaging. But I got to tell you, I think that,
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: like we're debating we society whether this is addictive right now,
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: I think twenty years from now, this will not even
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: be a debate. And I view it as very similar
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: to the debate over tobacco. And I say that exactly
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: as someone who grew up on Tobacco Road in North Carolina,
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: who worked for the Winston Salem Journal, Winston and Salem,
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: two cigarette companies, and forty and fifty years ago, we
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: were debating whether you know tobacco was really meant to
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: be addictive. Not only do we know that, we know
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: that time after time after time, these companies had documents.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: That said they either knew or it was part of
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: the goal.
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: And that is another consistency with all of these social
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: media cases. Every single time there's either a warning or
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: an admission that it was part of the plan to
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: develop towards addiction. And yeah, I don't think this is
• 16:14
  Speaker 5: going to be debated, it's going to be understood in exactly.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Because time back in the day, for those who don't
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: who weren't alive or don't remember, you used to have
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: doctors on television recommending brands of cigarettes.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Correct, So something that.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Would be unthinkable in twenty twenty six, but fifty years
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: ago that was the norm.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: When I left Winston Salem just thirty years ago, the
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: debate was whether they should ban smoking in the hospitals
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: because it was the RJ. Reynolds Health Center, so oh wow, yeah,
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: and they were trotting out papers that said, well, you know,
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: if you die early it's actually cheaper on Americans. Oh
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: so it's good for the system.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: But it's like the tobacco executive who said that cigarettes
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: were no more addictive than gummy bears.
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: And I think we will be laughing at some of
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: these arguments, just as we are about social media, as
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: we are about the tobacco ones.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: First, let's hope we get ahead of this one more. Yeah,
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: we're doing well. In other AI news or tech news,
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: Disney is walking away from its one billion dollar investment
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: deal with open Ai. This decision comes after open Ai
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: made the surprise move to shut down at Sora ai
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: video app. Now, if you remember, the deal with open
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Ai would have allowed users to create videos using hundreds
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: of characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars films.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Disney had plans to integrate some of the Sora created
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: videos into Disney Plus. In a statement, Disney said it
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: will continue to engage with AI platforms to find new
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: ways to meet fans where they are, while responsibly embracing
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: new technologies that respect IP and the rights of creators. Hmm,
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: does this sound like a little bit of fallout for
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: maybe the case before.
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: It also sounds to me like Disney is just trying
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: to find a way to capitalize on what's going to
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: happen regardless which is in this AI platform. There's virtually
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: nothing to stop us from saying, make me a video
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: of Mickey Mouse saying whatever, and you're going to be
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: able to do it wherever, and they'd like a piece
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: of that action.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: That's a good plan there, all right. Another big story
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: is a Democrat has won a special election in South
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: Florida that flips the state legislative district that includes President
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: Trump's mar A Lago. Emily Gregory is the winner and
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: the race for a District eighty seven's open house seat
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: over Republican John Maples. Emily Gregory had never run for
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: office before and has defeated the Trump endorsed GOP candidate,
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: and Gregory tells CBS News twelve that the Republican legislature
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: is just simply out of touch.
• 18:37
  Speaker 15: I think it's a real reaction to the current policies
• 18:40
  Speaker 15: at the national and state level, and I think that
• 18:43
  Speaker 15: is a clear indication from voters it's the wrong track.
• 18:45
  Speaker 15: Focus on the things that Flirtians care about.
• 18:47
  Speaker 14: Now.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: The former seat holder, Republican Mike Caruso, won the district
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: by nineteen points in twenty twenty four, but the governor
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: chose him to be the county's Clerk of Court. Gregory
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: says she also has plans to run in November. Maples
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: has not commented. All Right, some TSA employees are resorting
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: to donating blood and sleeping in their cars me as
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: they continue working without pay during the partial government shutdown.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Former TSA administrator John Pistol says something has got to give.
• 19:17
  Speaker 16: Congress needs to act, the administration needs to act. Work
• 19:19
  Speaker 16: kind of compromise. Look this reasonable people can find reasonable
• 19:23
  Speaker 16: accomplishments with reasonable goals and gets back to the goal
• 19:27
  Speaker 16: of what's the purpose all this?
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: The Department of Homeland Security says more than four hundred
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: TSA employees have quit. Democrats rejected a Republican proposal to
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: reopen DHS with only partial funding for ICE. All right,
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: this is interesting because this next story we've covered.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: I just thought it was a one and done. Turns
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: out it's not.
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: The FBI is expanding its investigation into threats involving McDill
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: Air Force Base over on the Gulf Coast. A video
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: sent by the messaging app Signal sent to the Tampa
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Bay Times reportedly claims responsibility for this month's incidence, which
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: included a possible explosive device planted outside the base. The
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: anonymous speaker referenced an undetonated bomb, saying quote, we have
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: a newly improved design that we plan to use in
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: the upcoming days end quote. They claimed to be part
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: of a political group opposing US actions in Iran. The
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: FBI would only confirm that the device had quote possible
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: energetic materials end quote what does that mean, but did
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: not identify it as a bomb. Mcdell Air Force Base
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: has been under heightened security following the recent threats and
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: a suspicious package share.
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of Floridians don't realize, like what McDill,
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: it's sent com everything, everything in the midst of other places.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. So it's very interesting.
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: One of those incidents apparently wasn't reported by mcdell Air
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: Force Base, and the Tampa Bay Times said they try
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: to trace the phone number that this video had come from,
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: but they were unable to do so.
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: So so what's the point of someone sending the message
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: through the signal lap.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: So that they couldn't be tracked, so that they could
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: contact their report at this not.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: Why send a message?
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: If the messages, if the bomb is the message, then
• 21:16
  Speaker 6: that's one message. Are they warning them? Why are they
• 21:19
  Speaker 6: warning them or taking credit? What's the goal here?
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: Sounds like they're trying to embarrass and threaten the central
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: hub of these operations for the war.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: I'm guessing yeah, and saying.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Like, if we can do this, right, what else can
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: we do?
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: What else could anybody do at the center that is
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: running control over everything that's happening.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know, I don't know, but it's a
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: growing story. Well, here's some good news. Florida gas prices
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: are down for the second day.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: In a row. Huh to what Triple A has the
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: average price for a gallon of gas at three ninety Come.
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: On now, Okay, down.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: Two cents since yesterday, three pennies since this time last week.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Still up nearly a dollar from last month. Month though,
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: and before the start of the war in Iram, the
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: state average was about two ninety three a gallon. Okay,
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: good old times, right, good?
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: Well, at least that war is almost over. Yeah, I
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: think we saw.
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: I think the president originally said he was looking at
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: four weeks three to four weeks, three to four weeks,
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: and on the anniversary of three to four weeks, we
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: were deploying some more folks out here.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, and more news of even more deployments.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah all right.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: Dozens of units at a Seminole County apartment complex have
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: been deemed unsafe after a fire. Residents at the Pebble
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: Creek at Lake Mary complex were ordered to leave their
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: homes due to safety concerns. Turns out a fire was
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: sparked late last month inside of a wall during stairwell repairs,
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: so that forced the fire department to have to cut
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: through walls to make sure that the fire hadn't gone
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: beyond its original location, and that means a total of
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: seventy two units were deemed unsafe and.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: Had to be evacuated.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: Thankfully, some residents were able to locate to other units
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: in the complex, while others were being helped by the
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: Red Cross. But yet again, all these people just upended.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: Told you got to get out a fire in a wall.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Sounds like some demonic kind of stuff, it does. I
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: don't want any fire.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: Oh no, well you had that right with the lightning strike.
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I think Jim blamed me in my lifestyle
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: or something.
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: Life decisions.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: Don't be surprised by that. Don't be surprised by that.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: Two men are hurt after a shooting in Orange County.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: This was really brazen. It happened yesterday afternoon in winter
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Park near Overlook Road and Sylvan Boulevard. The men work
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: for a window installation company through out there on a
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: job site, and Winter Park police believe they were shot
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: when they confronted two people who just drove up and
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: started trying to steal their tools right there. Two suspects
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: were arrested after a chase that ended in Lake Mary
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: and Seminal County. And asked for the victims, the co
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: worker tells WESH two. They each head surgery and are
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: expected to survive.
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: Well, good, who'd they shoot? They shot the workers.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: They shot the workers who were trying to confront the
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: thieves from stealing their tools.
• 23:58
  Speaker 5: Man, And also, these are obviously bad people, but they're
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: also dumb people because they shouldn't have been trying to
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: steal the tools.
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: Have you seen the price of windows? Good God, we
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: just had to get an estimate on some double pain
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: stuff and.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: It's like, I feel like I should be able to
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: drive that thing around after we pay for it.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: You should call renewal by Anderson. That's what you should call.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: The Central Florida woman accused of opening fire on singer
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: Rihanna's Los Angeles mansion has pleaded not guilty. Thirty five
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: year old Evanna Lazette Ortez is facing fourteen counts, including
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: attempted murder. She entered her plea and an la courtroom
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: this morning. Prosecutor say she drove to Rihanna's property, her
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Beverly Crest home on March eighth, and fire twenty rounds
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: from an ar style gun. Now, at the time, Rihanna
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: was home with her partner, Rapper asap Rocky and the
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: couple's three children A sap Rocky rather, as well as
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: her mother and two staff members.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Now, thankfully, no one was injured.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: The LAPD believes our tees drove to the home from
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: here in Florida, but the motive remains unclear. But apparently
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: she posted a lot of kind of Craig Cray statements
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: about Rihanna and other stars on social media.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: So she's from Orlando. She's from Orlando. There's always a
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: Florida connection.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: Scott, have you noticed that and all our years of
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: doing news, there's always a Florida connection.
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, yeah. And I saw clips of some of those videos.
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: She seems like she needs some help.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: She does. Yeah, that's what I'm assuming as well, and
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: definitely does not need a weapon. All right. America's pastime is.
• 25:29

• 26:17
  Speaker 4: You can get the option with ads.
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: Yes, sign us up for that. So, yes, you're right there.
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: You are correct.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: All of the plans I am on is the lowest
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: plan with that. You know what you're gonna You're gonna
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: have money to leave behind you. That's what I'll say.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Well, the Major League Baseball regular season kicks off today

• 27:08
  Speaker 3: a new Lord of the Rings movie is being developed
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: by Stephen Colbert dot Go Yeah. Warner Brothers released a
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: video last night with director Peter Jackson announcing the new
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: project and introducing the Late Show host as Jackson's partner
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: on the film, titled The Lord of the Rings Shadows
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: of the Past. The plot of his movie comes from
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: chapters of the Fellowship of the Ring that didn't make
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: it into Jackson's two thousand and one adaptation.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Maybe that could be its own story that could fit into.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: The larger story.
• 27:39
  Speaker 17: Could we make something that was completely faithful to the
• 27:42
  Speaker 17: books while also being completely faithful to.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: The movies that you guys had already made. What are
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: you gonna say, Scott.
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: How is it possible that they left anything out of
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: those books when making those movies that I think were
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: like three and a half hours on average.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: That just a but I guess Colbert has got the
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: time well so now, and he has a passion for
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: Lord of the Ring.
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: I did not know that he's considered a Lord of
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: the Rings expert, and said that he's been working on
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: this idea with his son, screenwriter Peter McGee, and developing
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: screenplay for the past two years.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: I liked when I was growing up. I like the
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: Hobbit and Gobbleman all that kind of stuff. But I
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: feel like enough already, HU.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: One less movie ticket. They'll sell the maxwell now. In
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: the video, Jackson asked Colbert if he'll have time to
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: work on the film because of his show, and Steve
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: said he'll be free starting the summer, and that's because
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: the final episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: is scheduled to air on May twenty first, and that
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: concludes your JCS news.
• 28:43

  Speaker 18: Good?
• 30:00
  Speaker 19: The root Canal.
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, yeah, that's the one thing that can make
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: coming in here like a vacation.
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: Hey.
• 30:08
  Speaker 19: Yeah, they said I was the bravest person I've ever seen,
• 30:11
  Speaker 19: did they really? Actually it wasn't as bad as I
• 30:14
  Speaker 19: thought it was going to be. Really, it's going to
• 30:17
  Speaker 19: be horrendous and I was dreading it.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: But everybody afterwards, real, you're a weak Yeah during it.
• 30:24
  Speaker 19: Yeah, I didn't know it was option. Actually, if I
• 30:28
  Speaker 19: knew it was optional, i'ld have gone to sleep.
• 30:29
  Speaker 16: But it was.
• 30:30
  Speaker 19: I mean, it was uncomfortable, and it's the thought of
• 30:33
  Speaker 19: what they're doing worse than anything.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, But.
• 30:36
  Speaker 19: But no, it was it was fine. I've had no
• 30:38
  Speaker 19: pain since. I mean, I stopped up on pain meds.
• 30:41
  Speaker 19: You know, cash you'd get for a nuclear war.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: Nothing.
• 30:48
  Speaker 19: Yeah, they gave me a T shirt that doesn't fit.
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: If you get a Root Canal, you get a free
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: te says I survived Root Canal.
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: It really sounds like the chucky cheese of dinners.
• 30:59
  Speaker 19: I know. It's they didn't tell me about the T
• 31:00
  Speaker 19: shirt before, so I'm getting this T shirt afterwards. When
• 31:03
  Speaker 19: I survived. I mean, it's like a universe.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: It's crazy. Do you guys remember when you were kids.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know if your dentist did this, but you know,
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: pediatric dentists would have like a little toy chest out
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: front appointment. You could go and pick out a toy
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: or something.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, i'd like that with like airplane bottles.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: Oh now that's a great idea. That would be a
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: great idea.
• 31:22
  Speaker 19: Give you a lollipop.
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: It seems wrong, it does. There's some sugar after we
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: cleaned everything.
• 31:27
  Speaker 19: Welcome back, Yeah, exactly. We wonder why the English teeth
• 31:30
  Speaker 19: is so bad.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: That lollipop is to ensure that they do come back.
• 31:33
  Speaker 19: Well, don't want you back. When I went to the
• 31:35
  Speaker 19: dentists in England, it was National Health so it was free,
• 31:37
  Speaker 19: so they didn't want to give anyone dental treatment. Oh wow, Yeah,
• 31:41
  Speaker 19: that's why everybody's mouth looks like an eighteen seventies graveyard.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Through West made famous in the Austin Powers movies. So
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: how's business going?
• 31:51
  Speaker 19: Yeah, it's good.
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we.
• 31:54
  Speaker 19: Still doing the group training is going great over in
• 31:57
  Speaker 19: a Vido. We've got a great setup over there. Now
• 32:00
  Speaker 19: in home training, we're actually we're going to do an
• 32:02
  Speaker 19: offer for everybody for the listeners. Seventy five dollars off
• 32:06
  Speaker 19: if you book before the end of March for in
• 32:09
  Speaker 19: home training. Wow, and one hundred dollars off if you
• 32:13
  Speaker 19: adopt from the new Orlando Center.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the new Pad Alliance, the.
• 32:20
  Speaker 19: Alliance Center, and you adopt from there, we'll give you
• 32:22
  Speaker 19: one hundred dollars off through April.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Now, would that include Loki from last week?
• 32:29
  Speaker 14: Oh?
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: That dog?
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, Darryl, the most beautiful sheer bread Golden
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Retriever eleven month old you'd ever seen, pause, the size
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: of dinner plates.
• 32:39
  Speaker 19: Well, you just sent me a picture. So my girls
• 32:41
  Speaker 19: that work on Saturday, they've got five Golden Retrievers. They're
• 32:45
  Speaker 19: like a Golden Retriever rescue on their own.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: Feel like you're not giving dear, I didn't get to
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: finish everything.
• 32:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah, in our studio for less than two minutes before
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: he already destroyed a set, a headphone, and a light hour.
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: It's just he chewed Bryan's headphones in three separate places
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: while Jack's.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: Arm was in as much trying to anyone could fix it,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: actually fix that problem.
• 33:12
  Speaker 19: So you know, if you if you adopt Loki, then
• 33:14
  Speaker 19: you know calls you get one hundred dollars fix problem.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: Because it's just bored. He's a puppy.
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like eleven month old, what is that as any
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: his teenager stage or.
• 33:23
  Speaker 19: I mean eight months to eight to ten months, they
• 33:26
  Speaker 19: start becoming teenagers and then terrorists.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: And you know, and what's interesting is that Kenny Tale
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: here from the ped Alliance believes that that's part of
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: the reason why his adoption isn't happening as quickly, even
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: though he's a pure bred, beautiful dog.
• 33:40
  Speaker 19: Well, he's probably what happens. People go around to see
• 33:43
  Speaker 19: these dogs and the dogs are they're bored because they're
• 33:45
  Speaker 19: in they're in the kennels and stuff, and then they
• 33:47
  Speaker 19: jump all over them and the people go, that is
• 33:50
  Speaker 19: not the dog that I want at home because they're
• 33:51
  Speaker 19: not really seeing the potential there.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 33:54
  Speaker 19: But remember, we can fix anything, you know, So if
• 33:56
  Speaker 19: you go and adopt these these gorgeous animals, go and
• 33:59
  Speaker 19: adopt one, I'll come around. We can fix the problems,
• 34:02
  Speaker 19: you know, and you've got you know, you've got a
• 34:04
  Speaker 19: friend for life.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: There, a friend for life, absolutely.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: And then the other bomber too, is that you know,
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: that puppy stage disappears quickly and then you get a
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: chill dog.
• 34:12
  Speaker 19: But then you know, well, most most dogs get given
• 34:15
  Speaker 19: up around eight to ten months old, purely because of that,
• 34:17
  Speaker 19: because they turn into teenagers at that age, and you've
• 34:21
  Speaker 19: been through the puppy stage and you think, oh my god,
• 34:23
  Speaker 19: I survived the puppy stage.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: Is this ever going to end?
• 34:26
  Speaker 19: That's right? And now we've getten this and then they
• 34:28
  Speaker 19: get given up, which is a real shame because it
• 34:30
  Speaker 19: is you know, it's usually linked to either boredom or
• 34:34
  Speaker 19: lack of what they perceive to be a lack of leadership,
• 34:36
  Speaker 19: both of which are so easily fixed.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: They really are.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: And if you haven't done in home training, I think
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: it's the best way to go.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: Darryl, I know you agree.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: It's so important that if you're going to be fixing problems,
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: it's important to see the problems in the environment where's happening.
• 34:50
  Speaker 19: That's exactly it. Because if you send a dog away
• 34:52
  Speaker 19: from for training, either dog's not with you, so you
• 34:56
  Speaker 19: don't know what's happening to the dog. You don't know
• 34:58
  Speaker 19: what they're what they're doing, we don't know the training
• 35:00
  Speaker 19: they're putting in or not putting in, and the dog's
• 35:04
  Speaker 19: not acting the same way as it would when it's
• 35:05
  Speaker 19: comfortable in your own home. You need to have the
• 35:08
  Speaker 19: dog trained in your site. You need to know what's happening,
• 35:12
  Speaker 19: why it's happening, right, so that you've got the skills.
• 35:14
  Speaker 19: I mean, what we do is we spend the first
• 35:16
  Speaker 19: half of the appointment training the owner about why they're doing,
• 35:20
  Speaker 19: what they're doing and what we're going to do, so
• 35:22
  Speaker 19: that they have the life skills to carry it on afterwards.
• 35:25
  Speaker 9: You know.
• 35:25
  Speaker 19: Effectively most people don't need us afterwards, but we're there
• 35:28
  Speaker 19: to hold their hand, but you know, we give them
• 35:30
  Speaker 19: the skills they need so dogs in the future they
• 35:33
  Speaker 19: can do it themselves.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: Are you Are you a pet person, Scott?
• 35:36
  Speaker 16: Yeah?
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I grew up with like I had a
• 35:39
  Speaker 5: yellow Lab that was never from my side, did my
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: paper out and everything else?
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: Really yeah, yeah, yeah, I've had a couple of Golden
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: Retrievers and yeah that's my preferred breed. But again, you know,
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: I think it's important to get that in home training,
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: get those problems taken care of, get Daryl over your house.
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: So can I ask you a crude question? Of course?
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: All right, this is like a PG. Thirteen dog question.
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: So my nephew recently adopted a dog a bit of
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: a mutt, and said that this dog was just the
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: humpiest dog he ever had. Was humping his legs, humping
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: other people's legs, humping other dogs, until he said another
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: larger dog tried to have his way with his dog
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: in a way that made his dog very uncomfortable, and
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: then the dog stopped.
• 36:22
  Speaker 19: Yeah, and I'll tell you what it is. It's because
• 36:24
  Speaker 19: he's got nothing to do with sex. It's dog dog
• 36:27
  Speaker 19: was neuter. Yeah, it's dominance, and what he's doing he's
• 36:30
  Speaker 19: trying to he's dominance on everything is on the big
• 36:32
  Speaker 19: cheese here, and then another bigger cheese has come along,
• 36:36
  Speaker 19: and no, you're not. And so suddenly he's got a
• 36:39
  Speaker 19: little bit of an attitude of Dushan's like, okay, well
• 36:42
  Speaker 19: I'm not. You know, I'm not the biggest person.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: That really was it? He just was told Yeah, he
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: learned his order.
• 36:49
  Speaker 19: He slipped from you know, what he thought was the
• 36:51
  Speaker 19: top run of the added down to the bottom. And
• 36:53
  Speaker 19: he's like, okay, well I get the picture now.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: I'd rather learn that lesson verbally personally, But.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Sometimes man just won't learn. Although it's interesting.
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: My best friend's female lab used to grab my golden
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: retriever's head, and that's the first thing she would do
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: is just hump his head.
• 37:06
  Speaker 19: Well, females will normally dominate males, so you will always
• 37:09
  Speaker 19: get hump in the.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Mind, it never happened, and in the dog boss to say,
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: is it really?
• 37:17
  Speaker 19: Females will always dominant males, and males even though you
• 37:20
  Speaker 19: know they might be a very dominant male, they'll always
• 37:23
  Speaker 19: give in to the female. Yeah, they learned the lesson
• 37:27
  Speaker 19: of life faster than we do. Took me thirty years
• 37:31
  Speaker 19: and I'm still good.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say, I'm surrounded by three married men
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: who all won't make eye contact with me but are
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: looking kind of casual at each other, like.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: You're doing what I'm talking about. Yeah, I know you're
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: talking amount.
• 37:40
  Speaker 19: And that's why it's never going to dread really to
• 37:42
  Speaker 19: have three dogs, because you know you're going to have
• 37:45
  Speaker 19: two of one one sex and one of the other
• 37:48
  Speaker 19: and it never works out very well. So you know,
• 37:50
  Speaker 19: if you're going to get two dogs, get a male
• 37:52
  Speaker 19: and a female, that works out well. But if you're
• 37:54
  Speaker 19: getting three, there's no easy way of doing it.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: And you know, that's a really good point to bring
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: up as well, because we usually take phone calls and
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: text message from folks who already have dogs. But maybe
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: you're someone who's out there considering getting a dog and
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: you'd like to get Darryl's advice before you make that
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: leap and find out if you're you know what, what
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: would be the best breed for you to look for?
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: Because you work every available.
• 38:13
  Speaker 19: And they can come over to you know, on a Saturday,
• 38:14
  Speaker 19: we're over in a Vido. Come over you can. It's
• 38:17
  Speaker 19: like window shopping for dogs. We've got all sorts of
• 38:19
  Speaker 19: breeds there. You can speak to the owners and you know,
• 38:22
  Speaker 19: and see what their experience is with that dog. We're
• 38:25
  Speaker 19: having an event going to come up probably July or August.
• 38:27
  Speaker 19: We're just putting our toes in the water because a
• 38:31
  Speaker 19: lot of people in the Vido community have said, oh,
• 38:33
  Speaker 19: you know, I'd like to try agility, but I'd never
• 38:35
  Speaker 19: know where to go, or you know, I don't I
• 38:37
  Speaker 19: just don't want to sign up if it's the wrong
• 38:39
  Speaker 19: thing for my dog. So we're having an open afternoon
• 38:42
  Speaker 19: one Saturday in July or August. We're going to get
• 38:44
  Speaker 19: vendors down there, local vendors from Ovido, you know, the
• 38:47
  Speaker 19: small business that can't afford five hundred dollars for a pitch. Normally,
• 38:52
  Speaker 19: we're doing it free so the local business can come down.
• 38:55
  Speaker 19: We're getting a couple of the rescues to come down,
• 38:59
  Speaker 19: the police department, fire department, and it's going to be
• 39:01
  Speaker 19: a come and try the agility. We'll have a barbecue
• 39:05
  Speaker 19: wagon there, a couple of food trucks.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's going to be fun with dogs and a barbecue.
• 39:10
  Speaker 19: Anyone in a vido that you know it's got a
• 39:13
  Speaker 19: small business and they'd be interested if they give us
• 39:15
  Speaker 19: a call, we'll get an idea of what the interest
• 39:17
  Speaker 19: is like, or you know, shoot us a message if
• 39:20
  Speaker 19: you you know, you'd be up for coming out for
• 39:22

• 41:48
  Speaker 3: end of Animal House. But now We've done it once,
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: Let's do it again. Welcome back to Darryl Paint of
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: Popfection Dog Training. Thank you again, Daryl. We do have
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: a lot of text messages that have come in, and
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: I do know we've got a couple of callers as well.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: Jee, we do.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: Okay, So I'm going to start this off with a
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: very interesting question that I don't know if we've ever
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: had before. Let's see, has a plumber gone into people's
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: houses all over town? Some dogs are super friendly, some
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: not so much. I don't get bit very often, an
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: occasional nip. I understand. My coworker gets bit all of
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: the time. Is there anything that we could do in
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: general that seems to calm dogs down when they're in
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: the presence of a stranger.
• 42:31
  Speaker 19: Well, actually, the best thing for any trade is to
• 42:35
  Speaker 19: have the owner put the dog away. That's the best
• 42:38
  Speaker 19: thing because the dogs are unpredictable, and it's very difficult
• 42:41
  Speaker 19: unless you know dogs very very well. It's very difficult
• 42:43
  Speaker 19: to predict when things are going wrong for you. So
• 42:46
  Speaker 19: the best thing as a trade would be listen, we're
• 42:48
  Speaker 19: coming over, you know, just to have your pets put
• 42:51
  Speaker 19: out the way for us, you know, just on the
• 42:53
  Speaker 19: safety side. Going back to his point why he's not
• 42:56
  Speaker 19: getting bitten and his coworker is it's a cruel eye
• 43:00
  Speaker 19: any But the more afraid you are of a dog,
• 43:02
  Speaker 19: the more likely is it will bite you. Yeah, they
• 43:06
  Speaker 19: pick up on body language, they pick up on your
• 43:09
  Speaker 19: your very demeanor. So if you're confident you're a dog
• 43:12
  Speaker 19: person and you kind of front it out, you're much
• 43:16
  Speaker 19: less likely to have a problem with the dog. So,
• 43:21
  Speaker 19: but there's no hard and fast rules of because dogs
• 43:25
  Speaker 19: are independent, you know, you can never tell and you know,
• 43:29
  Speaker 19: don't believe what owners say because they always say, oh,
• 43:32
  Speaker 19: my dog's fine, you know, until it bites you and
• 43:35
  Speaker 19: then it's well it's fine with.
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: Me, right exactly.
• 43:37
  Speaker 19: So you know, really it's the demeanor. It's the way
• 43:41
  Speaker 19: you present yourself, which really depends on whether you're more
• 43:45
  Speaker 19: likely or less likely to get bitten by a dog.
• 43:47
  Speaker 19: That is has a propensity towards that. But I would
• 43:51
  Speaker 19: say for any trade, the best thing is just have
• 43:52
  Speaker 19: the dog put away while you're working.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: That's probably that's well the best advice Jack. We have
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: a collar that's ready to go.
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: Sure, here is Kyle.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: Hey, Kyle, welcome to the Jim Colbert Show.
• 44:05
  Speaker 20: Hey Daryl, So I got a question about a fourteen
• 44:08
  Speaker 20: month old beagle. He's real excitable when we get home
• 44:12
  Speaker 20: from work, and he's not kindled up or anything like that.
• 44:14
  Speaker 20: But what can we do to stop him from jumping
• 44:16
  Speaker 20: up and down, especially when we have gas over.
• 44:21
  Speaker 19: Call us let us come around and fix that for you.
• 44:24
  Speaker 19: It depends on him. There's a lot of different ways
• 44:27
  Speaker 19: of correcting the dog. I'm not an advocate for one
• 44:30
  Speaker 19: any method that causes pain or suffering. And we don't
• 44:34
  Speaker 19: want anything that's going to make him afraid of you.
• 44:37
  Speaker 19: So it's very difficult to give like a can't blanche answer,
• 44:39
  Speaker 19: Oh do this, do that? I do want not to do.
• 44:42
  Speaker 19: Don't lift your knee up and you know, knee him
• 44:44
  Speaker 19: in the chest, which is a lot of people will
• 44:45
  Speaker 19: say to do or smack them on the nose things
• 44:48
  Speaker 19: like that. These are things not to do. It needs
• 44:51
  Speaker 19: to be a distraction of some kind. What you can
• 44:55
  Speaker 19: do to help yourself out, though, is don't make a
• 44:57
  Speaker 19: big deal about when you come in, no big reunion,
• 45:01
  Speaker 19: you know, excited voices. That kind of thing's going to
• 45:04
  Speaker 19: make him, you know, worse, coming in and ignoring the
• 45:08
  Speaker 19: dog is often you know, the best way of dealing
• 45:11
  Speaker 19: with it to calm everything down. But if jumping is
• 45:14
  Speaker 19: a problem and he's all over everybody, give us a call.
• 45:17
  Speaker 19: This is what we do on a daily basis. Will
• 45:19
  Speaker 19: come over. We'll fix that problem for you and any
• 45:22
  Speaker 19: other problem that you've got. But it's hard to say
• 45:25
  Speaker 19: do this, do that because your dog is the individual.
• 45:29
  Speaker 19: So we have to work out what the best form
• 45:31
  Speaker 19: of correction is for your dog based on his needs
• 45:35
  Speaker 19: and your situation. But calming everything down really helps. So
• 45:39
  Speaker 19: no big reunion and high voices.
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: Good luck, Kyle, Thank you, Yeah, thank you for calling.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: We appreciate that.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, before we get to the second car or were
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: you gonna say, jo, I.
• 45:49
  Speaker 6: Thought the knee out thing because that has worked for
• 45:51
  Speaker 6: me in the past. The dog is jumping up, not
• 45:54
  Speaker 6: aggressively putting your knee out where you're trying to like
• 45:56
  Speaker 6: hit him with it, but it makes it more awkward
• 45:59
  Speaker 6: for them to be able to climb on you. If
• 46:02
  Speaker 6: you just put your knee like forward like that, it's
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: and then they also they can't kind of reach your
• 46:08
  Speaker 6: mid sections.
• 46:08
  Speaker 19: It doesn't it doesn't stop the desire to jump on
• 46:11
  Speaker 19: you all it's doing is providing a barrier between you
• 46:15
  Speaker 19: and it, and you're standing on one leg.
• 46:17
  Speaker 6: Which so if it's a one off relationship with you
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: and the dog the knee out, it's fine. But if
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: it's something you're trying to correct for the you know,
• 46:24
  Speaker 6: long term life of the dog, then you should probably
• 46:26
  Speaker 6: go with that.
• 46:27
  Speaker 19: Most of the advice I hear is when the dog
• 46:28
  Speaker 19: up nam in the chest and that's not good. Oh yeah,
• 46:32
  Speaker 19: and we you know, for dogs that are jumping, you
• 46:34
  Speaker 19: want to stop the jumping because while it might be
• 46:37
  Speaker 19: okay for you know, a six foot three you know
• 46:40
  Speaker 19: rufer to come home and the dog jumps up, when
• 46:43
  Speaker 19: his eighty six year old mother comes around, who's got
• 46:45
  Speaker 19: brittle bone disease and you know, can't stand on one
• 46:48
  Speaker 19: leg to lift the knee up, then it's a problem.
• 46:50
  Speaker 19: So we really, when we're dealing with problems, we want
• 46:53
  Speaker 19: to take the desire to do the bad behavior away,
• 46:57
  Speaker 19: rather than put a band aid on an arterial bleed.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: Well another text question here. Our Maltese has a stuffed animal.
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: At times, she gets very possessive and slightly aggressive. When
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: we try to separate them, her mood changes like a
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: light switch. Should we get rid of the toy aka
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: the boyfriend.
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: Why they take the toy away from the dog.
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: Because the dog gets possessive and slightly aggressive. It's thank you, Daryl.
• 47:24
  Speaker 19: It's something which is something which is there's more of
• 47:28
  Speaker 19: a problem here than the meacie. It's not really the toy.
• 47:31
  Speaker 19: The fact is the dog is a resource guarder. So
• 47:35
  Speaker 19: you need to fix the problem because if you take
• 47:36
  Speaker 19: that toy away and give it something else, it will
• 47:39
  Speaker 19: just guard that you'll have a new boyfriend.
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: Okay, So it's not about this special toy though.
• 47:45
  Speaker 19: I mean, if the toy is special to the dog,
• 47:47
  Speaker 19: then you can use that to maybe play a search
• 47:50
  Speaker 19: game with the dog to wear it out. Make that
• 47:52
  Speaker 19: the special toy that the dog works for, so the
• 47:55
  Speaker 19: recall exercise or hiding the toy for the dog to find,
• 47:59
  Speaker 19: and when that game's finished, then the toy goes away.
• 48:02
  Speaker 19: So if it's something the dog really loves, then they
• 48:04
  Speaker 19: monopolize on that. But just taking the toy away isn't
• 48:08
  Speaker 19: going to fix the problem which is underlying, which is
• 48:10
  Speaker 19: the resource guarding.
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Ah.
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: If you took away my woobie, I'd probably bite you as.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Well, would you?
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Who wouldn't exactly, you really have a Wiobi. Okay,
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: for a second, I thought I believe that we have another.
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: College Jet really buy people. He really does bite people.
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: Okay, this one, I think you have a lot of
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: great advice for someone just texted as at seven to
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: seven zero three one. How do I get my girlfriend's
• 48:35
  Speaker 3: two dogs from destroying the backyard. They've turned it into
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: a racetrack and it's becoming a dirt lot.
• 48:42
  Speaker 19: Well, you're not going to fix that problem. The reason
• 48:47
  Speaker 19: is because you've got two dogs that are obviously very
• 48:49
  Speaker 19: high energy and they're going to run around the backyard
• 48:52
  Speaker 19: and turn it into you know, what looks like a
• 48:55
  Speaker 19: First World War battlefield. The best thing you can do
• 48:58
  Speaker 19: is actually sectional a piece of the backyard which is
• 49:01
  Speaker 19: for the dogs. Let them play in that area together,
• 49:04
  Speaker 19: because you're not going to be able to calm them down.
• 49:06
  Speaker 19: There's no sitting down and going okay, you know, let's
• 49:08
  Speaker 19: play chess together, you know, let them play put things,
• 49:12
  Speaker 19: you know, a toy on a bungee cord out there
• 49:15
  Speaker 19: for them to play, so there's not so much race tracking,
• 49:18
  Speaker 19: but sectioning off a piece of the backyard which is
• 49:21
  Speaker 19: fenced for the dogs. Means that you keep the nice
• 49:24
  Speaker 19: part of the backyard for barbecues and you know, for
• 49:27
  Speaker 19: the kids to play in. And we're not playing in
• 49:30
  Speaker 19: you know, foxholes.
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: So it's kind of like a dog run.
• 49:33
  Speaker 19: Yeah it really is, but you know, an area for
• 49:35
  Speaker 19: them to because they're going to do it. You know,
• 49:37
  Speaker 19: it's there's no way of calming them down to the
• 49:40
  Speaker 19: point where they'll just you know, walk around nicely together.
• 49:43
  Speaker 19: They're high energy dogs. They're going to do it, So
• 49:45
  Speaker 19: give them somewhere they can do it that isn't ruining
• 49:48
  Speaker 19: your life.
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: Now, you had another trick along with the bungee cord
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: attached to like a tree with treats in it or
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: whatever that gives the dog something to work for. There
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: was something with a baby pool because now that we're
• 49:59
  Speaker 3: starting to get one or now did you say put
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: something frozen in the baby pool with like streets in it.
• 50:04
  Speaker 19: Well, the thing hanging from the tree hasn't got treats
• 50:07
  Speaker 19: in it. You're thinking of kids parties, You're getting confused.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: I do bite.
• 50:16
  Speaker 19: That's just a toy hanging from a bungee cord about
• 50:19
  Speaker 19: head height that they can pull on and play tug
• 50:21
  Speaker 19: of war with because we don't want to play tug
• 50:23
  Speaker 19: of war with the dog because it makes you the toy.
• 50:26
  Speaker 19: What you're talking about. The other thing is that a
• 50:28
  Speaker 19: kid's paddling pool. If you get a mixing bowl or
• 50:33
  Speaker 19: plastic mixing bowls round as you can find one half,
• 50:36
  Speaker 19: fill that with water and freeze it. Put something on top,
• 50:40
  Speaker 19: like one of these white bones that you can fill
• 50:42
  Speaker 19: with peanut butter or something. Put that on top, fill
• 50:45
  Speaker 19: it up to the top and freeze it again. Then
• 50:47
  Speaker 19: when you take the bowl away, then you'll have like
• 50:50
  Speaker 19: a dome of ice with a bone in the middle
• 50:53
  Speaker 19: with the peanut butter in it. Put that in the
• 50:54
  Speaker 19: kids paddling pool and then the dog will chase it
• 50:57
  Speaker 19: around this block of ice and it will hydrate it,
• 51:01
  Speaker 19: cool it down, give it something to do, and when
• 51:03
  Speaker 19: the ice is all melted, then they've got their bone
• 51:05
  Speaker 19: to eat as well. So it keeps them busy for
• 51:07
  Speaker 19: a good couple of hours in the summer.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: And this is why you want to call Darryl Pain
• 51:11

• 51:14

  Speaker 3: Anlaw dot com. We're going to take a quick break
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: and come back and talk to Orlando Sentinel columnist Scott
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: Maxwell to see what he wrote about in the newspaper today.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: We'll do that next to keep it here on Real
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: Radio one A four point one.
• 53:36
  Speaker 4: S Hey, guys, I hope you guys are doing well.
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: For Scott Maxwell.
• 53:43
  Speaker 6: I'm happy that he's in here today and not doing
• 53:45
  Speaker 6: his regular segment and pissing everybody off through the airways.
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: Just jovial, happy and just enjoying him. So enjoyed Scott by.
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: Oh Mo, so sorry, Mo.
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: You're going to want to do the countdown to getting
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: pissed off in about ten nine eight seven six. Welcome
• 54:04
  Speaker 3: back to the Jim Colbert Show. Jim will be back
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: with us after playing in his golf tournament. I have
• 54:09
  Speaker 3: Dad Jack and our special guest co host today, Scott Maxwell.
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: Thank you again for filling in and coming in today.
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: I'll show you happy exactly.
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: Actually, you know, for all those listening, we had teased
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: this at the beginning of the show that these are
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: important articles because this hits right at the heart of
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: everyone's wallet rights.
• 54:28
  Speaker 5: And especially here in Florida especially, And I would say
• 54:30
  Speaker 5: that I was thinking about what today. I have found
• 54:33
  Speaker 5: myself writing more about pocketbook issues recently, and so much
• 54:39
  Speaker 5: because everybody knows costs are going up. But I think
• 54:41
  Speaker 5: one thing people don't always appreciate is how much lawmakers
• 54:46
  Speaker 5: affect what they pay. It's not just things like tariffs
• 54:49
  Speaker 5: and taxes. It is giving a green light to companies
• 54:53
  Speaker 5: to just run rough shot over you on whether it's
• 54:57
  Speaker 5: property insurance or utility bills.
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: So which one do you want to tap? Go first?
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: We can do utility bills to start.
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: Oh yay, that's on the cover of today's sentinel.
• 55:05
  Speaker 5: Actually yes, I just I think I posted it right
• 55:07
  Speaker 5: before we came in here. It'll be in tomorrow's print edition.
• 55:11
  Speaker 5: But basically what happened is there was a FPL Florida
• 55:16
  Speaker 5: Power and Light, which is gigantic, the biggest utility around
• 55:20
  Speaker 5: in the country, one of the biggest in the country,
• 55:22
  Speaker 5: got a giant rate hike approved. And it's important when
• 55:25
  Speaker 5: I say improved, to understand that theoretically we have regulators
• 55:30
  Speaker 5: in this state. The governor appoints a public Service Commission
• 55:33
  Speaker 5: who theoretically looks out for the consumer's interests. Now, usually
• 55:38
  Speaker 5: these regulators act like they've been to Darryl Payne's dog school,
• 55:42
  Speaker 5: and they just roll over for whoever asked them to
• 55:45
  Speaker 5: do so, and they give whatever rate hike they did.
• 55:48
  Speaker 5: And FPL just got a gigantic one through to the
• 55:51
  Speaker 5: tune to worth about seven billion dollars, you know. And
• 55:55
  Speaker 5: there was actually there's a position called the consumer Advocate
• 55:58
  Speaker 5: who said that if this profit, if this past, FPL's
• 56:02
  Speaker 5: profit would be I think it was obscene.
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: Was the word he used. And everybody said, sounds good
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: to us.
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go for it.
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: Give him what they want exactly.
• 56:11
  Speaker 5: Normally these politicians roll over, But this time this year
• 56:14
  Speaker 5: there were a couple of them, and I'd say every
• 56:16
  Speaker 5: few years there are some who actually stood up.
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: And one of them is a.
• 56:19
  Speaker 5: Don Gates that you may recognize the last name if
• 56:23
  Speaker 5: you don't recognize.
• 56:24
  Speaker 4: The first Daddy, Daddy Gates. Yeah, Daddy Gates.
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: I've been surprised at his legislation. I've been pleasantly surprised
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: with Don Gates.
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: Daddy Gates has.
• 56:34
  Speaker 5: Been in the legislature for going on more than twenty years.
• 56:37
  Speaker 5: He's actually in his second stint around because of term limits,
• 56:40
  Speaker 5: and generally very respected.
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: He's probably the most.
• 56:43
  Speaker 5: Powerful Senator outside of like the Senate President up there.
• 56:47
  Speaker 5: And he filed a bill, and it basically it was
• 56:50
  Speaker 5: meant to keep utility rates down. What it basically said
• 56:54
  Speaker 5: was that going forward, the Public Service Commission, before approving
• 56:58
  Speaker 5: any sprate hikes, has to balance affordability to consumers with
• 57:02
  Speaker 5: profits of the utility margin, which you.
• 57:05
  Speaker 4: Think they were doing to begin with.
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: I mean, if you're not, I don't know what the
• 57:08
  Speaker 5: point of having a regulators are. And it also required
• 57:12
  Speaker 5: utilities to put disclose how much they were paying their
• 57:15
  Speaker 5: executives and some other transparency things like this. And so
• 57:19
  Speaker 5: the bill I would I submit. If you took it
• 57:21
  Speaker 5: to your average Floridian Republican, Democrat or Independent, they'd say,
• 57:25
  Speaker 5: good idea, that's what you should be doing. The bill
• 57:28
  Speaker 5: got just absolutely torpedo, did not advance in either chamber,
• 57:31
  Speaker 5: and Don Gates just flat out came and just said, well,
• 57:33
  Speaker 5: this was because of FP and L. All they have
• 57:36
  Speaker 5: to do was tell their lobbyists, their lobbies just have
• 57:39
  Speaker 5: to say, we don't want this to pass.
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: They don't even have to appear. That was one of
• 57:42
  Speaker 4: the points they made. They don't even have to.
• 57:43
  Speaker 5: Appear at the public hearings. This didn't happen in a
• 57:45
  Speaker 5: public hearing. It was behind the scenes. And he said,
• 57:48
  Speaker 5: and they're the ones that smothered it in its cradle
• 57:50
  Speaker 5: is the fraal gates used. So that's already should probably
• 57:55
  Speaker 5: steep your clams a little bit. But then right on
• 57:57
  Speaker 5: the heels of that, the Tampa Bay Times came out
• 58:00
  Speaker 5: cited a report that said a new report said FPL
• 58:04
  Speaker 5: is the most one of the top two, but probably
• 58:07
  Speaker 5: the most profitable utility company in the United States of America.
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: Wait a man, So the company that just got record
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: rates passed.
• 58:16
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 58:17
  Speaker 5: And the point of my column is, let's look at
• 58:19
  Speaker 5: these two stories, not in a vacuum, but together. One
• 58:21
  Speaker 5: is they just got a giant rate past and they
• 58:24
  Speaker 5: block legislation that would force regulators to consider their profits
• 58:29
  Speaker 5: when approving rate hikes, and the other one says they're
• 58:31
  Speaker 5: gigantically profit.
• 58:33
  Speaker 4: I don't think those two things happened happened separately. I
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: think they're related.
• 58:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's like having a developer being the head
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: of the FWC. It just seems like the interests of
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: the politicians and the lobbyists continue to take precedence in
• 58:47
  Speaker 3: this state. And I've never seen state government so openly
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: hostile to its constituents.
• 58:52
  Speaker 6: They used to hide it better, Yeah, they used to
• 58:55
  Speaker 6: hide it.
• 58:55
  Speaker 5: What I have actually I called the death of shame,
• 58:58
  Speaker 5: like they used to be some And you know, one
• 59:01
  Speaker 5: of the I often think about Jim Colbert actually because
• 59:04
  Speaker 5: if you guys remember when I'm writing about FPL, because
• 59:06
  Speaker 5: you make guys may remember a few years ago there
• 59:09
  Speaker 5: was what was known as.
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: A ghost candidate scandal.
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: Yes, and I won't get rehash all of that, but
• 59:14
  Speaker 5: what it basically involved was a whole bunch of shenanigans
• 59:17
  Speaker 5: with fake candidates and fake names that was all designed
• 59:22
  Speaker 5: with FPL and their backers involved to help get FPL
• 59:25
  Speaker 5: candidates into the Senate to do favors for them. And
• 59:31
  Speaker 5: Jim asked, I remember, he was genuinely confounded. He said,
• 59:34
  Speaker 5: I don't understand why FPL is spending all this money
• 59:38
  Speaker 5: and time on a handful of legislative races. And I
• 59:41
  Speaker 5: think that's a lot of people. It's a legitimate question.
• 59:43
  Speaker 4: A lot of people have.
• 59:44
  Speaker 3: I don't even think a lot of people would be
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: aware that a utility company would be that involved in
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: state politics.
• 59:50
  Speaker 4: And then you see these stories.
• 59:52
  Speaker 5: And this is why, because the Senate has to approve
• 59:54
  Speaker 5: the regulators, because the Senate and the House are the
• 59:57
  Speaker 5: ones that would pass legislation that prohibit them them or
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 5: getting the way of them having future rate hikes. There
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 5: is so much financially riding on a giant utility like this,
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 5: and I'm going to submit it far out weighs in
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 5: the mind of many politicians the interest you're talking about
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 5: with the average consumer or the average citizen.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 4: What are you doing? You got one vote? What are
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 4: you doing?
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 5: They would take The Tampa Times, Bay Times summed up
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 5: Tom excuse me, tallied up the FP and L donations,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 5: and I think it was like thirty million dollars. I mean,
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 5: this is just one company in one state for first
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 5: state level politicians, and they're already making bank rolls on
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 5: the next one. Because DeSantis appointed all of these very friendly,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 5: industry friendly regulators, they've already invested half a million dollars
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 5: five hundred thousand dollars into the campaign of Byron Donald's
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 5: the guy who wants to be the next governor. So
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 5: you know, while we're out here people, I think the
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 5: average SMO opens up their bill and goes go, hey,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 5: how'd that happen? And you're paying checkers while these guys
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 5: are doing forty chess on the politics before up in Tallahassee.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: Which what really stinks because this year we had an
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: unprecedented freeze. So you know what, we're learning that heating
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: your home is more expensive than cooling your home.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: But that's not all.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 3: I also remember a little tidbit that you had included
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 3: in an earlier FBRL story that I don't think enough
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 3: people a know about or be get mad about because
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 3: it just seems like such an egregious abuse of power.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: I'm just like, okay, tell everyone what that what that was?
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 5: I'd actually forgotten it deb until you reminded me of
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 5: it during the break.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: It or steams my clams.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 4: Yes, there you go.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 5: And I think this is this one I wrote I
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 5: don't know about four years ago, and the yeah, four
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 5: years ago, and the headline of it was secret bar
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 5: fpl bar for legislators in Tallahassee. They swear they always pay.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 5: And I think it was Politico that unveiled it. When
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 5: I say it's a secret bar, it literally does.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 4: Not have a sign on it.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 5: It's just a nondescript building, but you're not allowed to
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 5: go into it. FPL runs it it's a private invite
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 5: only establishment and only people, say state legislators are invited
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 5: to come inside and drink at this private bar, and
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 5: the lobbyists who might want to interact with those with
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 5: those legislators. After this got written about, there are a
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 5: couple of people who said, wait a minute, doesn't that
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 5: run a foul of the state's gift band because you're
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 5: not supposed to give these things anyway, give them anything anyway.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 5: And that is when Representative Randy Fine claimed that FPL
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 5: at this secret invite only high.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 4: End bar has a jar on the counter well has.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 5: A jar, and that lawmakers are expect to use the
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 5: quote honor system to pay for whatever they consume. So
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 5: I don't know what you're worried about. Deb It sounds
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 5: like everything is above born.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: Nothing to see here, folks, Nothing to see here, folks.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: And you know, the other issue that makes me so
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: mad is that this is going to be the first
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 3: time in decades that Floridians aren't going to be able
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: to get a citizen led amendment onto the ballot because
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 3: again state legislators have decided that we don't know what
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: we're doing, right, they have to come in and tell us,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: because we've done it with class size amendments, We've done
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: it with medical marijuana, where we tell them as the voters,
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: what we want, and then they come back and say, no, no,
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: you don't so but they've set the bar so high.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: I don't know when we're going to see the next
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: citizen led it.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, then there's nothing but one hurdle after the other.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: I mean the million dollars and the insurance they have
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: to get.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 4: It's crazy, it is.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 5: And I will say an FP and l's defense, they
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 5: have a reputation for being a pretty reliable utility company,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 5: and in fact their rates are not among the highest,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 5: but there are watchdogs and energy folks who say they
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 5: could be a lot lower if they weren't posting obscene profits.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 5: And another really gross story that involves them was there
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 5: was basically an amendment to newter solar energy. And I
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 5: don't think like it's hard to think of anything more
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 5: pure than like an average individual homeowner wanting to control
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 5: their own electric destiny like Jack, Yeah, by installing solar panels.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: In the Sunshine State.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 4: And there was an effort to uh that.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 5: And and it turned out the reporters found, by using
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 5: metadata and public records requests, that the legislation to neuter
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 5: this solar effort was actually written by an FPL FPL
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 5: lobbyist handed to a legislator along with or close to
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 5: about the same time she got a big pile of
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 5: money from FPL. So that that when we talk about,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: you know, the special interests are writing the laws in
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 5: the glassy, that's literal.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 3: Well, and the problem with it is is that even
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 3: though their rates may not be the highest in the country,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: we always hear this after every storm season up.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: Got to raise your rates up, got to recover our
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: storm costs, got to raise your rates.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 5: And and like we mentioned at the beginning, the rate
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 5: that just passed was one of, if not the largest
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 5: in US history collectively in value.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: And that's before hurricane season. Yeah, so who knows what's awesome?
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, you've already chapped I was, you've stemed
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: our clams.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: Why don't you keep going and tell us all your clams?
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: I know, somebody said plan would be itchy, tell us
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: about the homeowner's insurance thing that's going on.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 5: Yes, that was the column I wrote about today. Oh,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 5: basically I was looking at the fact that what you
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 5: are starting to see is the insurance industry sort of
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 5: teaming up in Florida with Florida politicians to say that
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 5: their reform is working and you are getting rate relief.
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 3: And citizens always puts out a story like that, look,
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: we've reduced our policies while eleven other companies have moved in.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 5: And there was in the Sentinel there was a guest
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 5: column written by the head of the Chamber of Commerce
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 5: that said reforms are working. And there was a letter
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 5: to the editor written by like the head of an
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 5: insurance association that said, boy, you're lucky.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 4: You know you're getting good race.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 5: And I started getting all these letters from readers who
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 5: are basically saying, what world are they living in? I mean,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 5: they're saying things are getting better. I look at my
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 5: bill every year. It has gone up every year since then.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 5: How can both of these things be true? And the
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 5: reality is that we at the Sentinel, in our sister paper,
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 5: the sunsetin in for Lauderdale, we've crunched the numbers, and
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 5: since they delivered reform, and I'm putting that in air quotes,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 5: reform which consisted primarily of making it harder for you
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 5: to sue your insurance.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 4: Company, even if the company denies.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 5: You of benefits to which you're entitled. The only way
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 5: you might get those to go to court. Since that
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 5: reform happened every single quarter for nine consecutive quarters, that's
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 5: three months times nine, so twenty seven consecutive months, rates rose.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: That rose from one to five percent collectively a total
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 5: of forty percent. After like twenty seven months of rates rising,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 5: there was one quarter where they dropped one percent, one
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 5: to two percent. And that's where everybody pounces to say, look,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 5: we're delivering, we're delivering.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: Late rate reliefs.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 5: And after you've gotten beaten over the head like forty times,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 5: they're going to take one beat back and say aren't
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 5: you happy?
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 4: Say thank you?
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 5: So yeah there, Yeah, they're cherry.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 4: Picking the data.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll just say that, cherry picking the data.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 5: And I think there are things that can be done.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 5: I've talked about it before. I mean the reality is
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 5: Florida's a high risk state. I mean, there's no amount.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 5: We're a target to hurricanes and everything else, so it's.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 4: Going to cost a lot.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 5: One option is to take the Citizens program, which most
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 5: people who have been customers of Citizens are relatively happy
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 5: for the reason they're relatively happy for with that is
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 5: because there's not a giant profit that's being siphoned out
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 5: of it. That's the state run insure of last resort.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 5: Some people, including some even conservatives, have said there's an
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 5: argument for making it basically like what Medicare or medicaid
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 5: is that it should be the states should run this,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 5: take the profit aspect out of it, and subsidize insurance
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 5: that way, that is an actual subsidy that makes living
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 5: in Florida more affordable. What instead, what we've been doing
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 5: is taking big chunks of money and basically subsidizing the
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 5: for profit insures and not demanding that they pass those
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 5: savings along to rate payers.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 4: And that's what I consider be a problem.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 3: And when you add in the higher utility rates, when
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 3: you had in the higher homeowners insurance rates, and then
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: you hear all of this serious talk about getting rid
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 3: of property taxes and what that could mean for services.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 3: So do you feel like you'd be up to talk
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: about that a little bit.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 4: Maybe a little bit, but I think it is almost I.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 2: Know it's dead in the water for this legislative session, but.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 4: I don't know may it may happen.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 5: And I think no matter it will pass no matter
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 5: what people tell you. If they understand that cops need
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 5: to be funded.
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 4: And school well schools would still be fund But if.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 5: Cops, firefighters, parks, they understand these be funded. But I
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 5: think when people get into the ballot box and the
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 5: question is do you want to keep paying taxes?
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 2: I think that's a good point.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: I think that passes seventy percent of the time.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 5: When it goes over, and it will, it will just
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 5: destroy local government, says as we know them.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: And as someone who's marrying someone in local government a
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 3: month from today, that's a terrifying prospect.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, And before I had to pull up so many
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 5: things I can't remember. The other point I was writing
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 5: about the insurance that I think people want to know
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 5: is that virtually there have been a lot of big
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 5: things exposed about the insert insurance industries, and one of
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 5: the things is that while they're claiming they're broke, they're broke,
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 5: and they need to charge high rates. They're shipping a
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 5: lot of their profits to these out of state affiliates.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 5: So a company ABC sets up company ABC dot to
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 5: you know, two point zero up in North Carolina, and
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 5: they take thirty million dollars of their profits, ship it
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 5: up there and say, oh, we can't make rates meet
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 5: men's meet down here. We need to raise rates. And
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 5: the state has had that information and hidden it. There
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 5: have been questions about whether these new companies. That's another
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 5: thing I think a lot of your listeners probably recognize
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 5: there was a day when all of us had companies
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 5: with names we recognize. Oh yeah, you were all state,
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 5: you were a state farm, you were Now it's like
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 5: slide b bob.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 4: You know, whofesser.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 5: These are companies from California that did not exist. Literally,
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 5: these are companies did not exist. Two years ago and
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 5: the CBS News had a story with about one of
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 5: these new companies based out of Lake Mary where the
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 5: whistleblower wasn't some low ranking employee, it was the former CEO. No,
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 5: she said, we're running a shell game where we're not
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 5: only shipping profits out of state, you know, to make
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 5: it look like we're poor, but we're at risk of
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 5: making our company insolvent. And that's the That's the other
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 5: thing that I think is really dangerous is that all
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 5: these new companies are starting up, they're not tracked, they're
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 5: not tested, they have no long track record, and you
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 5: don't have a way of knowing if your company solve it,
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 5: if they're still going to be around, if a big
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 5: disaster strikes. And there have been moves to try to
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 5: push for better transparency in all of this, and so
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 5: far the legislature said, no.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: Boy, that got a real problem with transparency up there
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: in Tallahassee. Don't theyk they do?
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: Someone just texted us at seven seven zero three one
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 3: just renewed my insurance after hearing all this wonderful news
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 3: that the rights had gone down due to our politicians.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 3: I don't know where they're buying their insurance because mine
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: went up three hundred and fifty dollars this year. It
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: has gone up consecutively for the last five years. Ever
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: have filed a claim.
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think a lot of people get really
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 5: frustrated by that, and you know, you're gonna get me
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 5: worked out.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 4: But and another thing is a.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 5: Lot of people are paying more and getting less coverage.
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 5: The coverage doesn't cover the same things it used to,
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 5: so and a lot of these people have been forced
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 5: onto these companies. Citizens covered. I think it was nearly
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 5: two million people. Yeah, when they were like get the
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 5: rolls down, get the rolls down exactly, And I'm not
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 5: sure what the numbers exactly.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 4: I think it went from like two million to like
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 4: four hundred thousand.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 5: A lot of these people got forced off of Citizens
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 5: onto a private company because if a private company came
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 5: in within twenty percent higher, you got forced onto those roles.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 5: So these are customers who did not choose these companies.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 5: They'd never heard of these companies. The companies in some
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 5: cases did not exist two years ago, and they have
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 5: no way of knowing how solvent they are.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 4: And that's a legitimate concern.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: And it's so interesting because what you're talking about parallels
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: closely with what personal injury attorney Glenn Klausman talks about
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 3: with the changes that have been made to the auto
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 3: industry and litigating that and getting insurance to pay for that.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: So this is just another stumbling block for Floridians.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 5: And I think one thing that's really frustrating is that
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 5: this is something most everybody agrees on. In fact, after
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 5: our paper in the Tampa Bay Times wrote about how
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 5: companies were secretly siphoning off their profits and then claiming poor,
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 5: every legislator, Republican and Democrat, came together and said that
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 5: should not be allowed. You should not be able to
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 5: deceive our citizens.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 4: And anyway said great.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 5: And then a bill was filed by a Democrat, Carlos
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 5: Skiermo Smith from Orlando, who basically said, yes, we have
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 5: to have transparency, and it got torpedoed. It did not
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 5: pass in the Senate. I think it had got support
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 5: in the House. But the bottom line is when push
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 5: comes to shove, even when we're talking about things that
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 5: everybody knows they should be doing, because we're just talking
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 5: about transparency, and never happens, and it always seems to
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 5: benefit the deep pocketed special interest.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 6: And who's to blame us the people of Florida exactly,
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 6: because we keep sending these people back to Tallahassee.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 4: Who do this time in.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 5: Because right now some people are right, they think I
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 5: need to do something about this. But come October of
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 5: this year, they're gonna they're gonna start hearing screams about well,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 5: they're trying to make your kid a transgender. Yeah, they're
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 5: trying to get the illegals to take your job, and
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 5: you're supposed to forget everything, all these pocketbook issues that
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 5: we've been talked about, and take your guns away. Uh,
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 5: And those are the things that have traditionally been very
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 5: effective message.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 6: And they also handle it early because they they know
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 6: remember Mike Caronopolis, he wrote that book that was but
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 6: in that book it even said, you know, by the
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 6: time you get to election, they will forget the.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they count on the electorate. The amnesia that we seem.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 5: To talk to one candidate today who said he's hoping
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 5: to run his entire campaign around the issue of insurance.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 5: And I will be interested to see how that is received.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: All of It's going to be interesting to see. Thank
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: you for steaming everyone's clam Scott. We really appreciate that.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: I think it's a clam bank. It is a bank
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 2: that is a new nickname, Lamb Bank. Well, we're gonna
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 2: take a quick break.
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 3: Well we'll be back with more on the Jim Culbert Show,
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 3: So keep it here on Real Radio one A four
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 3: point one.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 4: The Animal House just came on.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 21: That reminds me there was a message from the Monster
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 21: Show for you guys, Brad shocked.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 4: He's not my fault, damn it.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: Jack was trying to save the headphones. People, He was
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: trying to save them.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show on Real Radio
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 3: one oh four point one. Jim, we'll be back with
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 3: this after playing in his golf tournament. You've got deb
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 3: Jack and our special guest co host today, Scott Maxwell,
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 3: and Man.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 2: We just have a few minutes before.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: I just wanted to share some of these text messages
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: because the listeners are responding to what you were talking about.
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 2: With the home insurance.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: Are they all seeing spectacular rate reductions?
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 2: No?
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 3: But one person did text us at seven seven zero
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 3: three when I had to sell my home of twenty
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 3: years because of that crap.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 4: And that is criminal. That is absolutely criminal.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 5: And you know what, there are some things I agree
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 5: with Ron to saying us about that no one on
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 5: property taxes, No one should ever have to sell their
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 5: house because they can't afford the taxes. That's why we
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 5: have homesteadies interested. But these same things should apply for
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 5: home insurance. You shouldn't have to lose your house because
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 5: you can't afford for the coverage.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 4: That you're mandated to have by law if you still
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 4: have a mortgage.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 3: We got handed off from Citizens because the law stated
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 3: that if a private insurer offered a policy that was
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 3: less than one hundred and twenty percent of citizens rate,
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 3: we had no choice.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 2: Got an insurance company.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 3: No one has heard of the increase nineteen point nine
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: to nine percent.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 2: Someone else will said they started it.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 5: And that's interesting because that's the deal. They were not
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 5: allowed to increase more than twenty percent. Yeah, so it's
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 5: not an accident that their rate went but by nineteen
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 5: point nine to nine.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 3: And what we're hearing one text after another is I've
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 3: never heard of this company.
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 4: Oh no, you have not.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 6: And most all of these cases, Yeah, well I have
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 6: the one story of me, from one year to the next,
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 6: my hot property insurance going down and it only costs
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 6: me having to put a brand new roof on my house.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 2: Wow, well that's cheap.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 4: And now it's like that, now it's gone up.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 6: It's only been I say, only a few hundred dollars,
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 6: because there are stories out there where people have four
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 6: digit increases.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and now the.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 5: New roof replacement expectation for insurance purposes is like what
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 5: it's like fifteen fifty twelve to fifteen years, even though
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 5: the shingles you're getting are called like what thirty twenty five?
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 6: I think they were twenty five year shingles, but the
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 6: I guess. In Florida a few years ago, they said
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 6: after fifteen years, an insurance company can require you or
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 6: not be forced to reinsure you without having your roof.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 4: And that ain't cheap.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: No, no, it's not. Someone also said, I got a
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: guy if you need one.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: I was forced off citizens and had to take Manatee insurance,
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: have no idea who they are? Right, went up and
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 3: I have less coverage.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 2: What choice do I have?
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 4: That's exactly right.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 5: You get hosed coming and going, the rates, the coverage
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 5: and a company you don't know that you can trust.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody else said they started at nine hundred and
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 3: eighty eight dollars and some odd CeNSE in twenty twenty one.
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 3: They're renewal in twenty twenty six. You want to take
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 3: a stab at it.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 2: Twenty five hundred Wait, wait, what was it?
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 3: It was nine hundred and eighty eight dollars and ninety
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: nine cents in twenty twenty one. What's the number in
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty six, he said twenty five hundred.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll say twenty one hundred.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 3: It's actually twenty nine. It's two nine hundred and eighty
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: six dollars and ninety.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 5: Three two hundred percent increase on that slightly outpaces the
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 5: rate of inflation from.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 4: Twenty twenty when I first got my house that was
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 4: about that.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 6: It's it's three times what it was back then for me,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 6: which is crazy.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 5: And you know what else, why say you got host
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 5: coming and going with less coverage. The other thing you
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 5: get is denials are going right, because that is a
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 5: direct fallout from making it harder to see your company.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 5: If the companies know it's going to be harder for
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 5: them to be sued, they're going to be more.
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 4: Prone to deny your claims, even if they're legitimate.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 3: Which is also less incentive for them to remain solvent
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 3: because if they don't have a long track record, they're
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 3: not easy to find. They kind of pick up their
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 3: tent and just go without facing any real world consequences.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 5: I would say that none of them want to go insolvent. However,
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 5: we have seen executives take a company and shut down
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 5: in the state of Florida and then reset up under
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 5: another name and slide one of the ones I mentioned before,
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 5: which has picked off more of these citizens' policies through
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 5: sort of the forcing than any other company.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 4: That's one of them.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 5: That ceo used to run another company it folded, and
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 5: now he's running this new company that's been around for
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 5: I think four years and getting these customers not by
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 5: choice but by state policy.
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 3: And and they're not being any transparency. There's that word
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 3: again about you know the history of the company.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 5: And that is the CEO who's made the most headlines
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 5: for the biggest paychecks, something like fifty million dollars between
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 5: he and his wife over I think it was two
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 5: years for their paychecks.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 4: I have to double check that.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 6: Oh, the texting services just replete with horror stories. Yeah,
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 6: one person had to sell their house. Someone else it
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 6: went up four times as much without from twenty two
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 6: hundred to eighty eight hundred eighty eight eighty eight hundred,
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 6: and without any claims.
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 3: Right, Uh, yeah, it's just yeah, our home insirt. Yeah
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 3: had to sell the number of listeners that are texting
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 3: us in saying they had to sell their home because
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 3: they can't afford this, and then you add a utility rates,
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 3: and then you add choline, and.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 5: Yet another problem is you know they had to sell
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 5: some people have their houses, they own them outright, and
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 5: if you own your house outright, you can go bare
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 5: go naked. And I can't remember the exact stat I
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 5: saw last but it was somewhere like twelve percent of
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 5: homes in Florida are naked.
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 4: That is terrifying.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 5: That is terrifying to think about what's going to happen
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 5: the next time and Andrew comes through here. If one
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 5: at of every eight homes, or when out of ten,
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 5: or even when every twelve is not.
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: Insured, that's going to be, Like you said, that's.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 4: That's a recipe for disease.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 3: It is, absolutely but like a lot of people are saying,
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 3: what can they do?
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 6: It's amazing how many texts are coming in. It really
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 6: is with everyone having a different issue.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well listen, you know, we're going to take a
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: quick break, but we've apparently hit a nerve. If you
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: guys want to call and talk about what's going on
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 3: with your situation, we.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 6: Do actually do have a call. Oh cool, Yeah, let's
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 6: get it.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 4: It's uh.
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 2: Joey, Joey, Hey, Joey.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 7: Hey, what's happening?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 3: Hey, thanks for calling, Joey. What do you want to
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 3: talk about? Is this home insurance stuff?
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 14: No?
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 7: I actually want to change the subject a little bit.
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 7: If I could please and go mister Maxwell about an issue, you.
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 16: Go for it, fire away, mister Maxwell.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 7: An honor to speak to you, sir. I wanted to
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 7: talk to you about House Bill fifty four three. And
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 7: this bill has already gone through the approval process. It's
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 7: a bill that was approved for two hundred and fifty
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 7: million dollars for the Florida Department of Corrections. Out of
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 7: that two hundred and fifty and if up until twenty
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 7: twenty seven, out of that two hundred and fifty million dollars,
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 7: over half one hundred and twenty seven million dollars includes
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 7: and I want to say this plainly, a plan and
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 7: design for a new forty eight hundred dead prison, including
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 7: a six hundred bed hospital with mental health services. Now,
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 7: my issue with this bill is that a couple of
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 7: days before President's Day, a wonderful governor said no meetings,
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 7: no business done on capital were closed for President's Day.
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: Hey, Joey, would you do me a favor?
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna go ahead and put you on hold
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 3: and let you talk to Scott because we were running
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: up against the clock here. We really appreciate your phone call.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 3: He's going to actually pick up that phone call and
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: talk with you on the phone while we're at breaks.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 5: But I'll tell you before we go just generally, one
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 5: thing that this state and much of America has done
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 5: is invest a lot more money in corrections versus rehabilitation,
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 5: and a lot of private companies have come in to
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 5: cash in on that, which does not serve taxpayer's way
• 1:22:23
  Speaker 5: well or the public well.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 4: Because we're not.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 5: Rehabilitating criminals, we're keeping them in there for a long.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 4: And it benefits then to keep prisoners in longer.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, that privatizing is going to be a big issue.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: Like I said, we're going to take a quick break.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 3: We're going to continue this conversation, so keep it here
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 3: on the Jim Culbert Show on Real Radio one of
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 3: four point one s.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 13: Here's the thing, though, is it actually that scary to
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 13: go without insurance on your home if you haven't paid off? Yes,
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 13: I mean I know if a big storm comes through
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 13: your kind of sol But at the same time, your
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 13: insurance company is just going to fight tooth and nail
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 13: to avoid paying anything at all, and this huge company
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 13: that you give all the money too just becomes your
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 13: enemy and they look down on you for something that's
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 13: not your fault. Best case scenario, they agree to pay
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 13: a small portion of your loss. It takes you two
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 13: years to get the check, and then they either boost
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 13: your rates or drop you, so it's better to put
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 13: the money into account.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 3: Well, we've touched a nerve. Welcome back to the Jim
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 3: Colbert Show. I'm Real Radio one oh four point one.
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 3: Thank you for spending part of your Wednesday with us,
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 3: and thanks again to Orlando Sentinel columnist Scott Maxwell for
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 3: co hosting with us today.
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 2: We really do appreciate it.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 4: Happy to bring the gloom into well, you know this
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 4: way to go? Maxwell?
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Maxwell, this is all your fault.
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 4: I have some chocolate. Yeah. And I double checked.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 5: You know, I second guess myself when I said I
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 5: thought that was as much as fifteen percent of people
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 5: were going naked or without insurance, and I'm I'm reconfirming
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 5: it's now saying like fifteen to twenty percent.
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 4: And to that callback person, I'm not comfortable with that.
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 5: I would like to have my what is most people's
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 5: single largest possession.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's a great investment you'll ever make.
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 5: But let's just say, for an argument, say you know
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 5: an individual doesn't care about that.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 4: If more than ten.
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 5: Percent of the homes of the entire homes in your
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 5: state are there, your state's going to have problems. No
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 5: matter how risk prone people individuals were, it is. It's
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 5: just shocking to think that fifteen percent, one out of
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 5: every six to seven homes in the state could be
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 5: wiped out with no rebuilding.
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 3: Well here's here's another one. So this is a text there.
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 3: It's so difficult to keep up with them. If you
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 3: want to make your opinion known, you can do a talk.
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 6: About stop yeah, stop telling them we have too many
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 6: seven seven.
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 4: Zero right about these?
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 2: It does, but I mean it should.
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 3: I mean even that mortgage guy Don texted and I
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 3: mean it's affesting everybody.
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 6: You're going to read one and the page refreshes and
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 6: then it's like ten texts down.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 4: And it's like where to go?
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 3: But here, So someone texted and said, I'm an insurance adjuster.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 5: Oh, let me tell you those people. I hear from
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 5: a lot of those, and they're on the front lines.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 3: And the real problem homeowners are going to face isn't
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: the amount of paying for the insurance. It's the way
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: insurance will not pay with these reduced coverages when they
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 3: need to make a claim.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 2: That's a big, big issue.
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 5: And I'll tell you, like when this will finally change change?
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 5: Was one lawmakers yeah, mom, like or one of their
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 5: family members, their daughter finally gets denied.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 4: You know they're gonna waltz in and well, well, well, Gardle,
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 4: you will of course. I think we have a problem
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 4: in this state because it never seems to it happened
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 4: with health insurance, did it not?
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 5: It happened when it has happened with health insurch I
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 5: think the example you're remembering was unemployment. It was when
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 5: when yeah, there was apps very good, when literally I
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 5: don't I want to it was his mom, No, but
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 5: I was going to say, like it was like forty
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 5: people who were entitled were not getting anything like they
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 5: were entitled to it.
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 4: The system was just screwed up.
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 5: The papers and media had been from weeks and weeks
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 5: and months on end, and then Joe Gruders out of
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 5: the Republican not just a party of Florida. I think
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 5: now the national public command. His mom didn't get her benefits,
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 5: and he said, I'm gonna have somebody's ass.
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 4: In a slag.
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 5: Well, because your mommy didn't get it, forget the two
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 5: million other Floridians that you were impacted.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 4: Now it's a problem.
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's As I've mentioned this before, one of my
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 5: favorite definitions from covering politics is the definition of privilege,
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 5: and that is when something does not strike you as
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 5: a problem because it's not a problem to you, right,
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 5: And we see a whole lot of that.
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, let's be honest, the last time we
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 3: had a partial government shutdown in this kind of effect
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 3: on travel, it ended when lawmakers were being inconvenienced.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 2: Well as happening again.
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there's finally started to be some talk in the
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 5: last couple of days about really maybe we should end
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 5: this TSA. These inconveniences at the airport are are getting serious.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 5: I don't think it's any coincidence that just yesterday Delta
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 5: Airlines announced that because of all this, they will quote
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 5: no longer.
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 4: Members of Congress will quote no longer or receive.
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 5: Special airport escorts or VIP treatment for services like upgrades
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 5: and rebooking.
• 1:27:05
  Speaker 4: That's when it gets serious.
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 3: And exactly there you go when they don't get to
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: get to the front of the line and pick the
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 3: better seats. Somebody just texted us again, wait till you
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 3: see that new law that just passed get used widespread
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: during a storm. Insurance companies no longer have to pay
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 3: your attorney's fees. So if you file a claim, you'd
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 3: have to sue your insurance company. We see the same
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 3: thing that Glenn Klausman talks about every Thursday on Ultra Court. Yeah,
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 3: with auto insurance, the fact that if they deny your claim,
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 3: you have to take them to court.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 5: And that's that's that's what the bulk of this reform
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 5: that they keep talking about was the legislation legislator and
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 5: governor pass.
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 4: Was making it harder for you to sue. And nobody
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 4: wants frivolous lawsuits.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 5: But let me tell you, whenever I used to see
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 5: Ron de Santus fuss about some verdict that awarded, you know,
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 5: say a million bucks to the attorney and I'm making
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 5: that up, you know, and only one hundred thousand dollars
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 5: to the client.
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, does that sound out of whack?
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, But you have to remember something nobody got any
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 5: verdict in that case unless a judge or a jury
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 5: concluded that the insurance company had stiffed that homeowner in
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 5: the first place.
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 16: Yep.
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 4: That's the only way a verdict like that happens. And
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 4: that's why people.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 3: Go to court, and that's why people are going naked
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 3: and not even bothering to insure their homes because if
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 3: you do have something happen and you still have to
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 3: take your insurance company to court, it really just seems
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 3: like the state lawmakers just continue to squeeze us left
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 3: and right.
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 4: I'm going to live in a shipping container.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 2: You know, that's not a bad idea.
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 4: I'm going to bury it in the ground. Now, you're
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 4: talking your bomb shelter living here. Yeah, I think so.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 4: You're probably going to get flooded if you bury it
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 4: in Florida. So there's always something.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 2: But I mean, and here's here's my biggest issue.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, So you have the CFO blazing goliat, Florida's chief
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 3: Financial Law officer, going around the state talking about his
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 3: fa FO audit right, calling out different counties.
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: When are they going to do Tallahassee?
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, no, not at all.
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 5: There have been so many We've talked about it before.
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 5: There has not been a single audit on what's going on.
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 5: What three years of emergency spending on the immigration issue,
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 5: including all the spending that that includes Alligator Alcatraz, hundreds
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 5: of millions of dollars there have been by state law
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 5: that the emergency spending is supposed to be audited. Not
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 5: one audit has been conducted, and our CFO has shown
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 5: no interest in that so.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 3: Far, which is just it's mind boggling to me. They're
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 3: going through all sixty seven counties and pointing out, you know, oh,
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 3: Palm Beach County is the worst at three hundred and
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 3: forty four million dollars.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: Well, they're paying for President's security.
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 4: Well, the cfo's office will be on the ballot this November.
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so you mushed to blame the people who keep
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 6: voting these yeah back in And that's what the texting
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 6: service is saying, right that if you keep putting the
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 6: same people back in the same office.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 4: Don't expect different result.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 3: Exactly, it really is, it really is. All right, are
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 3: we done frosting everyone's flakes?
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 18: Yeah?
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, you.
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 4: Got some good news for the next few minutes.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 5: Probably not, Yeah, we can go back talking about how
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 5: much I like cold chicken wings.
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: We could go back to that, or we could talk
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 3: about if you would be willing to pay extra next
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 3: time you travel to take.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 2: The relax Row. Probably I think so too.
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 6: Can you get on the plane though, Oh I saw
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 6: this relax Row.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're going to talk about that next. So keep

  Speaker 19: It's not the Democrats, is to Republicans.
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 7: Democrats try to make some.
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 19: Deals to pay TSA, but it was stopped by Trump.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 2: As you guys know, Trump took away TSA's tectic bargaining rights.
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 7: They had to be restored.

  Speaker 2: some of the heavy lifting. Scott. All right, so before
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 2: the break, a little bit.
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 3: Of a palate cleanser after talking about all that home
• 1:31:59
  Speaker 3: insure and stuff, which, like Jack just said, is just
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 3: absolutely heartbreaking.
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 2: The text messages that we're getting.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: Was this story that actually broke yesterday from United Airlines.
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 2: Have you guys heard this yet?
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 4: I have definitely heard it and seen it. I'm intrigued. Yeah,
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 4: I saw it on the news.
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw it on the news this morning.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 3: For those who haven't heard, United is the first carrier
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 3: who's going to come out with what they call a
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 3: relax row. It's three economy seats that the footrests can
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 3: flip up into a ninety degree angle to kind of
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 3: create a little bed. You get a mattress pad, you
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 3: get a blanket, two pillows, and if you're traveling with
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 3: a kid, you even get a snuggie.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 4: What you mean, like a thing that you put over yourself.
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 3: No, I think it's like a little a toy, something
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 3: they get to cuddle with at night. Okay, but would
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 3: you guys pay extra to do something like that? I
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 3: mean on long haul flights, if you're going to Europe
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 3: or flying to Hawaii?
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 4: Oh no, what.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 9: Okay?
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:32:59
  Speaker 4: Would I like it? Yes? Would I pay extra for it? Yes?
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 5: Would I pay the equivalent of three seats for it?
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 5: Probably not.
• 1:33:08
  Speaker 2: But if you're paying for two seats already, you just have.
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, if you know it for two and you
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 6: and the missus Maxwell could cuddle. But keep in mind, yeah, yeah,
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 6: the length of the width of three seats you're laying.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 4: That's like a love seat, right.
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so your feet are kind of bent up, your
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 6: knees have to be bent up.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 4: You're not extending out fully.
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 5: Jack, We know you're not going to pay you don't
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 5: have to make it sound awful to everybody else.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 4: Just say you have to think about what you're agreeing to.
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 5: Well, let me tell you I have what I would
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 5: call sort of the poor man's experience, first round experience
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 5: of this on Frontier.
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 4: Now, as you all may know, Frontier is.
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 5: What a trip to Vegas it was like last year
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 5: or two years ago, a low cost airline. And as you
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 5: may know, Frontier does not even have first class. But aha,
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 5: what Frontier does have is what they call upfront plus.
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 4: Okay, oh yeah, what is that? Spirit?
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 5: And so for the whopping price of forty nine dollars,
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 5: which is absolutely in my wheelhouse, you get a little
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 5: laminated piece of paper that goes on the middle seat
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 5: between you and the other one that says no one
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 5: can sit here.
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 4: I swear that is the truth.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 5: And for like you mentioned, for a Vegas flight that
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 5: was five hours, am I willing to pay forty nine
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 5: dollars to guarantee that no one's going to sit next
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 5: to me?
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 4: Hell to the s and I would do it every time.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 5: In fact, I'm not even sure Frontiers really thought the
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 5: math through on this, because even if both people on
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 5: both sides are paying forty nine dollars.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 4: That's ninety eight.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 5: Seems like they could make more money just by selling
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 5: the seat. But don't let Frontier know that, because right
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 5: now I am digging upfront.
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 4: Plus.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you could have just brought your own laminated paper
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 3: and said, oh know, I paid for that, I paid
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 3: for that.
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 5: Or I've seen I saw one guy one time bust
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 5: open a bag of Doritos and put the cheese all
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 5: over his hands, and he was just staring everybody who
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 5: dared to think about taking the middle seat next to him.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 4: Nobody did. Wow, nobody did.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 5: And you know what, I was the guy on the
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 5: other side, and aside from its stinking, it was nice
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 5: to have some extra space.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 2: I bet that's not a bad trick though. Yeah, that
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 2: is not.
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 5: I've heard other people talk about sneezing, and if you
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 5: think about it, I would never sit who's doing that?
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 4: When you say you're not sitting next to that biohazard?
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a good tip.
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, these are all things for the baby
• 1:35:43
  Speaker 4: dolls that cry.
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 2: Oh but it's a doll, but you.
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 4: Have it crying that all time, It'll be okay, it'll
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 4: be okay.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 5: And you probably need to say, Oh, she'll probably quiet
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 5: down two or three hours in.
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 3: Oh, the best part is when you get up to
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 3: put the doll on the overhead bin. Well, all United
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 3: Economy seats on these aircrafts are also going to feature
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 3: the largest economy seat back screen in the world, A
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 3: new blanket and neck pillow. Back to the days when
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 3: they used to just hand that to you when you
• 1:36:13
  Speaker 3: walk down the plane.
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 2: Gross, No, you're it's brand new.
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 4: We yes, it's never new.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 3: Did you ever travel where they handy the plastic bag
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 3: with the blanket in the pilloff?
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 4: Fresh ones?
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 6: Fine, that thing is new one time and one time
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 6: all week.
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 4: You think they're stuffing it back in the cellphane?
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 6: Yes, because they're not even cleaning planes anymore.
• 1:36:31
  Speaker 5: This is what Jack Bradshaw Airlines would do.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 6: They they are now investigation thinking about not cleaning planes
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 6: to turn them around fast?
• 1:36:41
  Speaker 2: Are you kidding?
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 4: True story? Heard it on the news, Chunky, It's got
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 4: to be true.
• 1:36:45
  Speaker 3: Well, what's crazy about that is when you think about
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 3: what happens on a plane. Now, not that this can
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 3: be avoided, but Jack, you've told the story before about
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 3: being a parent of a young child on a plane
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 3: and oh, what'd you do which time the baby.
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah, on the tarmac and the roll behind us, the
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 6: person had a baby that needed a diaper change. And
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 6: I don't know if you know anything about babies, let
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 6: me tell you something. When they get a smell, they're like, oh,
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 6: body time. Oh and so really, my daughter had a
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 6: diaper taine. She didn't have a she's telling me it's contagious.
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 2: It is just that the next time you go into
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 2: the men's room.
• 1:37:24
  Speaker 4: Just like yawning.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 2: No.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 9: Yes.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 4: So the one behind my daughter smelled it, and she's
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 4: like she went and she was on our laps. She
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 4: had to Oh, but you couldn't leave. We were on
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 4: the tarmac, but we were holding for like an hour.
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 4: I don't even know.
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 6: I had to flip down the tray in front of
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 6: me and change your diaper right there on the food tray.
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 4: The food you put.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 5: Your poopy daughter on somebody else's soon to be somebody
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 5: else's food tray.
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 4: Well, it's okay.
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 6: I guess they cleaned it after every flight, right, Not
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 6: a problem, is there?
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 3: Well, it wouldn't be a problem if they wouldn't even
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 3: consider not cleaning planes before they turned just to get
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 3: a better turnaround time.
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 6: Credit to that family with the poopy baby behind me
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 6: because she had an extra ziplock which allowed me to
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 6: put the diaper in the ziplock.
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 5: Because I, oh the things you have, and we're sort
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 5: of going on one tangent after another.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 2: That's fine.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 4: The value of traveling with ziplocks. Love it. Do it
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 4: all the time.
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 5: Everything from leftovers to biohazards to it, it's all very valuable.
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 6: My wife just tell me she watched a TikTok about
• 1:38:27
  Speaker 6: a cruise hack. You bring ziplocks with you because that way,
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 6: when you have a food available, you can put a
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 6: ziplock in your room and then you have it later,
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 6: or if you want to take it on your beach
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 6: day you're going down to the beach, you can ziplock
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 6: food and do that.
• 1:38:41
  Speaker 4: My buddy and I do it. We go to Vegas.
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 5: You get some ribi that's way bigger than you can
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 5: possibly eat, and you put it in a ziplock and
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 5: you gnaw on it two days later in the hotel.
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 3: What a great idea because on that way you don't
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 3: have to worry about buying extra food.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 6: You know what, I'm even thinking about getting real ziplocks
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 6: and not just a dollar gender brand.
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 4: That's crazy.
• 1:39:02
  Speaker 5: Wow, come on, nobody's buying that bit. You're right, I
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 5: do get the Dollar General bread.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 3: We should get them a gift card or something the
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 3: wald blots let them like move up to the next
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 3: level Dollar.
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 6: General, say five dollars if I spend twenty five every Saturday.
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 5: You are literally the only person I know who regularly
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 5: plans cupon visits to Dollar Gen.
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 6: You have to no join me in Dollar General. You
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 6: see other people doing it as well.
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 2: It's every Saturday, right, and.
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 5: You know every time I come in, you say this,
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 5: and you're all happy, and then I shame you by
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 5: encouraging you to watch the John Oliver special on all
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 5: the Ethical Evils of I've watched it, of what and
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 5: you still I felt really bad for about forty five minutes.
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 5: The Ethical Evils of Dollar General. It's it's like it's
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 5: everything from how they get the products to how they
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 5: prey on for by by giving you, like you get
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 5: a bar of soap that only costs a dollar, so
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 5: it costs a third as much as the regular bar soap,
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 5: but you get like twenty percent of the soap for
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 5: the thing, to how they treat employees, which was probably
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 5: the most.
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 4: Devastating part of the series.
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 5: It was but but but that I can get a.
• 1:40:12
  Speaker 4: Listen when I go there, it's the same lady.
• 1:40:16
  Speaker 6: She seemed very satisfied, very happy, and yeah, I will
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 6: tell you she also plays real radio on the radio
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 6: when I come in.
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 4: So I like her and I.
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 5: Can't be too high and mighty. I've been known to
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 5: go into a dollar store from time to time. It's
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 5: just we shouldn't make that our our our staple shopping.
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 2: But you know it would be interesting to find out.
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 4: Only for paper products, and so.
• 1:40:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, listen to him. I'm only coming for paper products.
• 1:40:43
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 3: I don't know if i'd want to know some of
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 3: those things about my favorite stores.
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 4: It's been so one will make that one will make
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 4: you feel bad.
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 2: But what's it called again?
• 1:40:52
  Speaker 4: John Oliver? Uhh, Yeah, he does Last Week Tonight, Last
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 4: Week Tonight with John Oliver.
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 5: If you just type up John Oliver and Dollar Stories,
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 5: you'd get his YouTube on YouTube. Yeah, but a good
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 5: thing about everything, John Oliver, like you know how I
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 5: come in and tick you.
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 4: Off almost always.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 5: He ends his show with a comedy sketch that loops
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 5: together everything that usually brings in some very famous people,
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 5: like the time he brought in a lot of famous
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 5: people to make fun of the Sentinel being bought by
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 5: a billionaire who was ruining it, and they did a
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 5: skit that I laughed and cried at.
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 4: I think like it. Rose Byrne was part of it,
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 4: and it was Rose is so funny.
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 5: About destroying the Sentinel After saying the billionaire came to
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 5: Orlando and a journalist said, what if I still want
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 5: to do actual journalism? And his response, no kidding, was
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 5: f you, except he did not use f he used
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 5: the full word.
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 4: And it was very sad when.
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 5: John Oliver turned it into a very funny sketch that moment.
• 1:41:52
  Speaker 5: Every time a serious journalist at this fake paper wanted
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 5: to do something, that was the editor's response, it's a
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 5: lot of fun.
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 4: How about that.
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 3: Reminds me of a company I worked for earlier on
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 3: in my radio career. That do you guys remember the
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 3: Telecommunications Act with Bill Clinton had signed that nineteen ninety six.
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 3: It changed ownership rules. That's how the radio went. Landscape
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 3: kind of changed a lot. We had a new general
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 3: manager came to put a hammer through the wall and said,
• 1:42:20
  Speaker 3: that's proof.
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 2: We don't leave.
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 4: Oh my.
• 1:42:23
  Speaker 2: A week later, they sold.
• 1:42:26
  Speaker 4: A hammer in the wall.
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 3: A hammer in the wall. This shows our commitment. We're
• 1:42:29
  Speaker 3: stand we're building, We're going to build something new together.
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 4: But he hurt the wall.
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 2: He hurt the wall and had everyone sign it.
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 4: I feel like he had his anecdote slightly off.
• 1:42:39
  Speaker 2: I think you're probably right.
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 3: I think he was all he was waiting for the
• 1:42:42
  Speaker 3: ink to drive on the contract.
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 5: Taking a dump right on a desk and being like,
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 5: that's the proof that I'm here to stay.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 3: People don't give them any ideas. We don't need anything
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 3: like that. Hey, did you guys hear about the the
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 3: DoorDash driver, the elderly door dash driver who got a
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 3: million dollar check his videos.
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 4: Closing on like two million last I.
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 2: Saw, Yeah, Yeah, that was really cool. Did you hear
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 2: the story, Jack, Nope.
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a Middle Tennessee DoorDash driver. Someone spotted him
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 3: on her Ring camera and it just broke her heart
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 3: at this seventy eight year old man, this.
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 5: Kind of like shuffling up. He was obviously in a
• 1:43:16
  Speaker 5: little bit of pain doing this very menial.
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 3: Work exactly, and so she saw him on her ring
• 1:43:20
  Speaker 3: door bell. Of course, it has been like the second case,
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 3: there was another person who got a check like that recently,
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 3: an elderly veteran, and she put the ring doorbell camera
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 3: up on social media and asked people to help donate
• 1:43:31
  Speaker 3: and change this man's life.
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 2: And two million dollars later, two million dollars later, you
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 2: know the thing isn't he He's going to go home,
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 2: break his own legs, start diving, driving for door Dash.
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 5: Mugging for ring cameras all over he's considering.
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 3: The thing I think was pretty cool was that even
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 3: door Dash pitched in twenty thousand dollars.
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 4: Oh it is.
• 1:43:54
  Speaker 3: I thought that was really cool. And as for the

  Speaker 2: Nobody would. I passed out.
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 6: I refuse, there's no reason to have food delivered it.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 5: Like if somebody gave you a door Dash gift card,
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 5: you would try to get just a refund on it.
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, he would take the gift card, he'd sell it
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 2: and get the cash for the.
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 6: I would read gifted Yeah, happy birthday, darling, No happy
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 6: anniversary deals.
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 2: Oh you wouldn't.
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 4: But so I'm I go to a place.
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 6: So I was getting a little spicy tunarole, a little yoys.
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 4: I know he's brought into his palate.
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 2: He really has.
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 6: And so it's like I get there. It's like I
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 6: see the car in the parking lot. He pulls into
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 6: the uh, the pickup Only I parked next. So I
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 6: get out for who first? Went in the door at
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 6: the counter and there's no one there, and he comes in.
• 1:45:04
  Speaker 6: He's waiting, and I see he's waiting. Another person comes up,
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 6: and the lady comes up, and the door dashers. They
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 6: don't wait to be called, they don't wait for their
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 6: place in line. They just go like they are expected.
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 6: It's like I should be first, kind of deal, and
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 6: they're just like.
• 1:45:20

• 1:45:23
  Speaker 2: Side, they're trying to serve their customers.
• 1:45:25
  Speaker 4: They are trying to serve me. I drove all the
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 4: way there. They are doing all of this for maybe
• 1:45:32
  Speaker 4: two dollars.
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 5: That comes out of mass and then hoping that they
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 5: get a tip with any number of people just stiffing
• 1:45:39
  Speaker 5: them for when they get that.
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 4: So it's not like they're living high on the hog
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 4: for the privileged. That's the other thing.
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 6: So they're not tipping the people at the restaurant, right,
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 6: They're not getting a tip.
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 1: No.
• 1:45:50

• 1:53:12
  Speaker 8: He heard it.
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 3: Three fun facts about the beloved breakfast treat, and one
• 1:53:16
  Speaker 3: lie that just can't seem to make up its mind.
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 2: All right, here we go. Dolf.
• 1:53:19
  Speaker 3: Number one Benjamin Franklin first introduced the waffle iron to

  Speaker 3: America upon his seventeen eighty nine return trip to France.
• 1:53:27
  Speaker 3: Number two FEMA uses the waffle house index to measure
• 1:53:32
  Speaker 3: a storm. Severity number three Eggo brand waffles were originally
• 1:53:36
  Speaker 3: called Froffles or finally number four. The waffle house sells
• 1:53:41
  Speaker 3: one hundred and forty five waffles a minute.
• 1:53:45
  Speaker 2: Which one's the lie?
• 1:53:47
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna go with number one, deb And.
• 1:53:49
  Speaker 2: You know what that means, Dolf, he wins.
• 1:53:51
  Speaker 4: I think he's right, he's.

• 1:54:01
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Dall.
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 3: Hang on, Dolph, Yeah, we'll tell you why that's the like,
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 3: do you know who did introduce the waffle iron to America?
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 5: I just felt like I would have heard something about
• 1:54:10
  Speaker 5: Ben Franklin being involved.
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 4: With waffles if that was.
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 2: You want to take a guess? Uh no, how about you, Jack,
• 1:54:17
  Speaker 2: I've read it. Oh you did read it. It's Thomas Jefferson.
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 4: Same year. Really, but it came from Amsterdam, not friends.
• 1:54:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, really brought a lot of novelties back from his

  Speaker 3: European trip, including Jack.
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 4: Said dirty dogs.
• 1:54:30
  Speaker 2: Hey, don't you leave Benjamin out of that too.

  Speaker 3: I heard he was pretty bad, including four waffle irons,
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 3: like Jack said, Jack said, from Amsterdam, isn't that pretty cool?

  Speaker 4: Sounds like overkills? How many waffle irons? Doesn't guy need?
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 3: But what's crazy to me is that waffle house sells
• 1:54:43
  Speaker 3: one hundred and forty five waffles a minute. Waffle house,
• 1:54:47
  Speaker 3: I guess, but can't sleep on them smothered covered in
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 3: but to.
• 1:54:51
  Speaker 4: Get him with everything they got?
• 1:54:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, so it is true for those who maybe just
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 3: moved to Florida and did not know. The waffle House
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 3: index is based on the company's operating staff. It grain
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 3: full menu, yellow, limited menu, red is closed. If you
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 3: spent any time in Florida and you hear a waffle
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 3: house is closing because of a storm, that's when people
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 3: will evacuate. Right, It doesn't matter if the state is
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 3: istioned an evacuation order.
• 1:55:14
  Speaker 2: What is waffle house doing?
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 4: Absolutely?

  Speaker 2: Since nineteen fifty five? This is how many waffles waffle
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 2: House has sold.
• 1:55:27
  Speaker 5: Well, I gotta do the math, right, like the minute times,
• 1:55:30
  Speaker 5: the hour of the bus.
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 2: Don't even look.
• 1:55:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm just going to go five billion. Oh, I
• 1:55:35
  Speaker 4: was going to say one and a half.
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 3: Billion, point scott, two billion, two billion waffles?
• 1:55:41

  Speaker 2: So how many ten minutes? Ten minutes?
• 1:56:02
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna say twenty five waffles.
• 1:56:05
  Speaker 2: Jack, you want to take a guess?
• 1:56:06
  Speaker 3: Thirty points Jack, twenty nine waffles and ten minutes.
• 1:56:12
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine the stomach ache after that?
• 1:56:15
  Speaker 4: I feel like a lead balloon exactly.
• 1:56:17
  Speaker 2: Do you have a favorite spot for waffles? Do you
• 1:56:19
  Speaker 2: like making them at home? Uh?
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 4: No, Yeah, I'd like somebody else to make my waff.

• 1:57:05
  Speaker 4: Oh.

  Speaker 5: It always sort of stuck with me, and I've had
• 1:57:10
  Speaker 5: trouble making my own hotel waffles ever since.
• 1:57:14

  Speaker 3: with Ross and Joel.
• 2:00:02
  Speaker 2: Put your hands together for Ross.
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 14: D It's always weird to make noise for yourself, but
• 2:00:09
  Speaker 14: here I go doing exactly that.
• 2:00:11
  Speaker 4: Scott, Dude, how are you doing? I'm better now that
• 2:00:14
  Speaker 4: you're here.
• 2:00:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, come on, it's.
• 2:00:19
  Speaker 14: About to get even better, man, because you know I've
• 2:00:22
  Speaker 14: I have felt with my I've dealt with my first
• 2:00:24
  Speaker 14: bout of just like sadness of recently and tonight's episode
• 2:00:29
  Speaker 14: full U Turn. It's all positive vibes because we do
• 2:00:34
  Speaker 14: a deep dive into the Austin comedy scene. It's the
• 2:00:38
  Speaker 14: trendiest thing that's happening right now in this country's entertainment scene,
• 2:00:42
  Speaker 14: an entertainment landscape. And I have an Austin comedian on
• 2:00:47
  Speaker 14: tonight Good Sauce with Ross and Joel Jake Rica is
• 2:00:50
  Speaker 14: in the building that I know. Nobody knows who that is,
• 2:00:53
  Speaker 14: but what they do know is that I can honestly
• 2:00:58
  Speaker 14: tell you he is probably the most committed, inspirational, creative
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 14: person that I have out of all of my comedian friends.
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 3: I have to say, I do recognize the name Ross,
• 2:01:08
  Speaker 3: and I don't know if it's because you've mentioned him
• 2:01:10
  Speaker 3: before or he's up and coming.
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 14: Well, he started here in Orlando, That's when I met him,
• 2:01:17
  Speaker 14: and then he moved to Austin. And let me tell
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 14: you one thing he said on tonight's episode, A little
• 2:01:23
  Speaker 14: spoiler here, and it gave me so much love, and
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 14: it gave me so much hope because every and I
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 14: mean this, every Orlando comedian who moved to Austin has flourished,
• 2:01:39
  Speaker 14: They have dominated, they have taken over. I'm talking all
• 2:01:44
  Speaker 14: the way up to Saturday Night Live with Cam Patterson.
• 2:01:48
  Speaker 14: I'm talking about David Jolly, who's now touring the country.
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 14: My former roommate is now one of the big guys
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 14: over at Comedy Mothership. So and I bring this up
• 2:01:58
  Speaker 14: just a little friendly room.
• 2:02:00
  Speaker 3: You're not warning us you're gonna move, are you?
• 2:02:03
  Speaker 18: No?
• 2:02:03
  Speaker 14: But I do definitely express my envy of finding out
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 14: what how big of balls you need to take to
• 2:02:09
  Speaker 14: move for your career. It's something that I haven't done
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 14: and something that I'm curious about. But it was so
• 2:02:17
  Speaker 14: cool finding out that our little local scene, which for
• 2:02:22
  Speaker 14: all of our comedians basically look at the same way
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 14: of like it's Florida's comedy scene. It's not great, it's
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 14: not crazy good. And then we moved and we found out, no,
• 2:02:34
  Speaker 14: we're all crazy good. Orlando comedy is phenomenal and it's
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 14: finally starting to make waves nationwide and a mainstream way,
• 2:02:45
  Speaker 14: and it's really awesome to be a part of it.
• 2:02:47
  Speaker 5: You're basically making the case that like Orlando's comedy scene
• 2:02:50
  Speaker 5: is basically like the Hunger Games, and if and if
• 2:02:53
  Speaker 5: you can survive here, you're gonna flourish.
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 3: That where the farm teams, just like our NBA team
• 2:02:58
  Speaker 3: is you know where the farm team for the and
• 2:03:00
  Speaker 3: the Miami Heat.
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, because yeah, Orlando's good, but it's on the DL
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 6: because really Austin gets the crest exactly because we got
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 6: to go through Austin to get there.
• 2:03:08
  Speaker 14: So scrib guys, I would say a large percentage of
• 2:03:13
  Speaker 14: all the new great comedy that's coming out of Austin
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 14: right now is surprisingly from two other cities, Philadelphia and
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 14: shockingly Orlando. So shout out to Orlando's comedy scene. And also,
• 2:03:29
  Speaker 14: that's just what happens when you get invested in your
• 2:03:32
  Speaker 14: community's art scene, is that you are now part of
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 14: that ground floor. And to see Austin get Orlando wised, No,
• 2:03:41
  Speaker 14: it's it's Philadelphia in Orlando who's vying for the funniest
• 2:03:45
  Speaker 14: city input in Austin. It's a fascinating conversation just talking
• 2:03:52
  Speaker 14: about the entertainment landscape. But don't think it's not just
• 2:03:56
  Speaker 14: all fun, you know, interesting conversations we have on tonight's
• 2:04:01
  Speaker 14: episode Scott the first ever sketch comedy off.
• 2:04:06
  Speaker 4: No, is it live sketch comedy.
• 2:04:09
  Speaker 14: Or well let me it's more of a kind of
• 2:04:13
  Speaker 14: a writer's room. Yeah, it's a podcast and we just
• 2:04:17
  Speaker 14: did it for the podcast. No, what it is is
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 14: that Jake Rica is dominating. He is the co creator
• 2:04:23
  Speaker 14: of Higher DeAndre, which is David Jolly's internet web series
• 2:04:28
  Speaker 14: where he just shows up and says, uh, you can
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 14: hire me as your mechanic heads up. The prices change
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 14: every day. Like there's a lot of sketch comedy going
• 2:04:38
  Speaker 14: on in Jake's life, and I've always loved sketch comedy.
• 2:04:41
  Speaker 14: So we go about for bout idea for idea and
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 14: we kind of have a small competition with our own
• 2:04:49
  Speaker 14: sketch ideas and it is way funnier than I am.
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 5: No, right, it sounds very fun and also ross I
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 5: like that better because I'm I'm still stuck. On the
• 2:04:59
  Speaker 5: beginning of segment, I said, you wallowed in sadness like that.
• 2:05:03
  Speaker 5: That upset me. I feel like that would be watching
• 2:05:05
  Speaker 5: Hello Kitty Cry. It would really make me unhappy.
• 2:05:08
  Speaker 2: You are unhappy. We can see it.
• 2:05:10
  Speaker 14: I bleed like the rest of them. And yeah, and
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 14: I'm I'm happy though that I'm vocal whenever I get sad,
• 2:05:18
  Speaker 14: because I think it's way more sad to just compress
• 2:05:20
  Speaker 14: it poop it out the next day.
• 2:05:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, let me throw this out there, just sort of
• 2:05:25
  Speaker 5: bury it and make the rest of us laugh.
• 2:05:28
  Speaker 4: What do you think about that?
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 14: Come on, man, Well he's good.
• 2:05:33
  Speaker 4: I like this such a people pleaser. He's actually like
• 2:05:36
  Speaker 4: contemplating that.
• 2:05:37
  Speaker 14: Okay, Scott, I'm not gonna bury it. But because if
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 14: I bury it, then I feel like there's no comedy
• 2:05:46
  Speaker 14: in burying it. You got to express it. So I'll
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 14: probably just like throw it up and then I'll wink
• 2:05:50
  Speaker 14: at you as it's finishing leaving my mouth.
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 5: Well, I've always appreciated that you don't have a filter,
• 2:05:56
  Speaker 5: even when God knows you should about things like and yeah.
• 2:06:01
  Speaker 4: Other things. But so yeah, live out loud. Ross, That's
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 4: why we love you.
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 16: Man.
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 14: Well I'll watch this. I'll live out loud one of
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 14: the sketch submissions that we talked about. And you can
• 2:06:11
  Speaker 14: hear a writer's room happening on tonight's episode. You can
• 2:06:16
  Speaker 14: hear people who love writing, who love jokes, who are
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 14: so audience centric and trying to make people's time worth
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 14: it when they watch whatever you're trying to create. There
• 2:06:29
  Speaker 14: are some phenomenal ideas. I'm gonna run through a couple
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 14: all right, all right, all right, So what Scott, what
• 2:06:35
  Speaker 14: do you think about a sketch comedy scene where it's
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 14: a guy who rubs a shampoo bottle and a genie
• 2:06:44
  Speaker 14: comes out.
• 2:06:44
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'm there, all right, I'm there for that.
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 14: And the guy who's naked in the shower and the
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 14: genie's looking at him going like, oh, I don't have
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 14: one of those, because I'm a genie. I'm disappearing from
• 2:06:55
  Speaker 14: the waist down. And then there's the guy looks at
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 14: him and goes, oh what. The genie goes, what is
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 14: your wish? And we already know I wish for infinite wishes?
• 2:07:05
  Speaker 14: And he goes, dude, you can't do that. That's against
• 2:07:07
  Speaker 14: the rules. Obviously, that's rule one oh one of Genie.
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 14: He goes, all right, sorry, I wish for infinite genies,
• 2:07:14
  Speaker 14: and the genie goes, dude, you seriously can't.
• 2:07:17
  Speaker 4: Actually I don't know.
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 14: Let me call my boss. Fine, prim So then he
• 2:07:23
  Speaker 14: finds out through Genie hr that in fact, you can
• 2:07:26
  Speaker 14: wish for infinite gen Now, every bottle that this guy
• 2:07:31
  Speaker 14: opens up comes with a genie. So if it's a
• 2:07:35
  Speaker 14: beer bottle, genie comes out drunk. If it's a shampoo bottle,
• 2:07:38
  Speaker 14: he comes out clean. If he comes out of a dasawny.
• 2:07:42
  Speaker 14: He comes out dry heaving. You see what I'm getting
• 2:07:45
  Speaker 14: at first.
• 2:07:46
  Speaker 5: Of all, I like all of it, but you had
• 2:07:48
  Speaker 5: me at Genie Hr if you could use that expression
• 2:07:52
  Speaker 5: early and often you so.
• 2:07:56
  Speaker 14: Another another sketch that I've always loved is two car salesmen,
• 2:08:01
  Speaker 14: but instead of selling cars, it's USA as if it
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 14: was a car dealerships. Come on down, zero percent integrity needed.
• 2:08:13
  Speaker 23: We're actually we'll sell you a car, but really all
• 2:08:17
  Speaker 23: of our money is going over to that other cards
• 2:08:21
  Speaker 23: they purchased us, and now we're just helping them out.
• 2:08:24
  Speaker 14: So you could do that and then probably I think
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 14: one of my favorite sketch ideas that and please give
• 2:08:30
  Speaker 14: me some grace here. This is my I know this
• 2:08:33
  Speaker 14: isn't going to make everyone laugh, but it killed me.
• 2:08:36
  Speaker 14: This is one of Jake Rica's sketches. Sketch ideas that
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 14: he had for the Great Sketch Off for tonight's.
• 2:08:41
  Speaker 12: Episode of Good Sauce with Ross and Joel, is that
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 12: he wants to hold a funeral for Jeff Epstein, but
• 2:08:49
  Speaker 12: it's spelled with a G eo.
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 14: At all.
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 2: That's actually very funny that.
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 14: You can hear his wife going it's Stein yeah, different person,
• 2:09:04
  Speaker 14: I promise you it's.
• 2:09:05
  Speaker 2: With a g.

• 2:11:27
  Speaker 14: like I like it.
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 5: Wait, when you say undefeated, do you mean that you've
• 2:11:31
  Speaker 5: done good sets or that all the marriages have stuck.
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 14: A little bit of column a little bit of column B.
• 2:11:38
  Speaker 14: One of them didn't really last though.
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie.
• 2:11:40
  Speaker 5: Okay, that doesn't sound undefeated, but I'm glad. I'm glad
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 5: you thought you'd made people laugh at the failed.

• 2:12:02
  Speaker 3: very own Scott Maxwell is quite the soothsayer. Oh two
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 3: things you've said today have already come to pass, and
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 3: the show hasn't even ended yet. But we'll do that next,
• 2:12:11
  Speaker 3: So keep it here on the Jim Colbert Show, Real
• 2:12:13
  Speaker 3: Radio one of four point one.
• 2:12:14
  Speaker 4: Real.
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 8: Scott Maxwell. I couldn't agree with you more man, probably
• 2:12:32
  Speaker 8: a sixth I had to read the Hobbit in high school.
• 2:12:35
  Speaker 1: It was required reading.
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 8: Yes, I went through high school and then saw the movies.
• 2:12:43
  Speaker 4: The movies were horrible. It was just a lot of walking,
• 2:12:47
  Speaker 4: wo trees move. This is why.
• 2:12:50
  Speaker 8: I'm more of a star wars man.
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, who loves to watch a Hobbit's watch all that walking?
• 2:13:02
  Speaker 2: All that walking. I'm just saying, I think that's what
• 2:13:05
  Speaker 2: caused him to go to sleep.
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 4: He and I are on team enough enough already.
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 5: It seems like there's been a lot of walking and wizardry,
• 2:13:15
  Speaker 5: and we know you're unhappy in the Middle Earth.
• 2:13:18
  Speaker 2: All right, get over it. It's just.
• 2:13:23
  Speaker 3: Well, just think, whether you like it or not, there's
• 2:13:25
  Speaker 3: going to be another Lord of the Ring movies coming out.
• 2:13:27
  Speaker 3: Maybe it'll be different with Stephen Colbert working at it.
• 2:13:29
  Speaker 5: Too much to ask for a ninety minute movie that
• 2:13:32
  Speaker 5: makes me laugh or alternatively destroys the entire world.
• 2:13:36
  Speaker 4: That's all I'm looking for. That all is that?
• 2:13:39
  Speaker 2: All?
• 2:13:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah? All right, let's work on that.
• 2:13:42
  Speaker 2: Something cheery or revelations.
• 2:13:44
  Speaker 5: I just want to see things blow up or laugh,
• 2:13:48
  Speaker 5: either one of those.
• 2:13:50
  Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show on Real Radio

  Speaker 4: have something to.
• 2:14:04
  Speaker 2: Say to Jack. Yeah, don't you think it's been looking
• 2:14:07
  Speaker 2: like serious news mode over there with mister Maxwell? Yeah?
• 2:14:10
  Speaker 4: Did I miss something? Did something break?
• 2:14:12
  Speaker 2: No?

  Speaker 3: No, no, Well we've given him the task of Scott
• 2:14:15
  Speaker 3: Maxwell is going to do the what'd you do that?
• 2:14:17
  Speaker 2: Rather, he's going to do you heard it here?
• 2:14:19
  Speaker 3: First are show ending newscast that we do at the
• 2:14:22
  Speaker 3: end of the show.
• 2:14:23
  Speaker 6: Yes, it's the most least listened to part of the
• 2:14:25
  Speaker 6: show because it's at.
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 4: The very end. That's wait, they're going now, you're.
• 2:14:29
  Speaker 6: Going to spend all your resources in time worrying about that.
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 4: Everyone else is going to let's go.
• 2:14:35
  Speaker 3: That's what's made me worry though, Jack. I keep saying
• 2:14:38
  Speaker 3: so like, how much? How many stories are you doing
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 3: over there? You're doing an awful lot of time.
• 2:14:42
  Speaker 4: Guys, I'm going to need a good forty five minutes
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 4: go through all this. I hope that suits. This is
• 2:14:47
  Speaker 4: about forty five seconds. Yeah, you know what, I'll do
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 4: what I damn will have prepared to do.
• 2:14:53
  Speaker 2: So take that, mister Brashaw.
• 2:14:55
  Speaker 4: I think we should probably start right now.
• 2:14:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess. Yeah.
• 2:14:59
  Speaker 3: Well, first of what we need do is it turns
• 2:15:01
  Speaker 3: out mister Maxwell, it's quite the soothsair. A couple of
• 2:15:04
  Speaker 3: things we've talked about on the show today that he
• 2:15:06
  Speaker 3: made predictions about have already come through.
• 2:15:09
  Speaker 2: Really yeah, exactly what.
• 2:15:11
  Speaker 4: Well, this was going to be one of my news stories.
• 2:15:12
  Speaker 4: So thanks a lot.
• 2:15:13
  Speaker 2: Deb happens to me all the time, Scott.
• 2:15:17
  Speaker 4: Can I read the script now?
• 2:15:18
  Speaker 2: Of course?
• 2:15:19
  Speaker 5: Actually, I think the first big story we talked about
• 2:15:22
  Speaker 5: was YouTube and meta. Yeah, a giant verdict against them,
• 2:15:26
  Speaker 5: and we were talking about how it reminded us of well,
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 5: what happened to tobacco in the cigarette industry years ago
• 2:15:33
  Speaker 5: when there were debates over whether it was addictive and
• 2:15:37
  Speaker 5: now everybody just sort of understands it was designed to
• 2:15:39
  Speaker 5: be addictive.
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 4: Well, can you hold that for a minute, good time.
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 1: For you heard it here first on the Jim Colbert Show.
• 2:15:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, now it's official.
• 2:15:49
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 2:15:51
  Speaker 5: Well on the heels of all that, CNN just one
• 2:15:53
  Speaker 5: hour ago published this story with this headline, Big tech
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 5: critics hail what they describe as quote big tobacco moment
• 2:16:01
  Speaker 5: and landmarks social media verdict.
• 2:16:03
  Speaker 3: Wow, seriously, they must they have to be listening to
• 2:16:07
  Speaker 3: real Radio one A four point one they are.
• 2:16:09
  Speaker 4: Or news people have parallel taking.
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, probably, I'm.
• 2:16:12
  Speaker 5: Gonna say it's the most creative take in the in
• 2:16:15
  Speaker 5: the world, but yeah, actually it was.
• 2:16:18
  Speaker 6: It's a great metaphor or I guess it's a metaphor
• 2:16:21
  Speaker 6: to explain you, right, that parallel of where we are
• 2:16:25
  Speaker 6: in this battle.
• 2:16:26
  Speaker 4: And I actually I think it's a good thing.
• 2:16:28
  Speaker 2: I think it is a good thing.
• 2:16:29
  Speaker 3: And here's why, Scott, because there are so many people,
• 2:16:33
  Speaker 3: including the majority of social media users, who have no
• 2:16:36
  Speaker 3: idea the history of cigarettes. They've always been dangerous, They're
• 2:16:39
  Speaker 3: always the thing that you need to That's why we
• 2:16:42
  Speaker 3: see the vaping levels and the zin's or whatever those.
• 2:16:44
  Speaker 2: Little packets are called.
• 2:16:45
  Speaker 3: Because it's been drummed into generations of children to not
• 2:16:49
  Speaker 3: pick up the smoking habit, so for them to know
• 2:16:52
  Speaker 3: that there was a time on American television that not
• 2:16:56
  Speaker 3: only did every single host of a show smoke, but
• 2:16:59
  Speaker 3: you had doctors doing television commercials about their preferred brands
• 2:17:03
  Speaker 3: of cigarettes. Can you imagine an eighteen year old seeing
• 2:17:07
  Speaker 3: a doctor on television saying, Hey, smoke this.
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 5: And I think the lesson there that I try to
• 2:17:13
  Speaker 5: keep in mind is how is history going to reflect
• 2:17:16
  Speaker 5: on me or the positions I hold.
• 2:17:18
  Speaker 4: And there were people, as your point, as you're pointing out.
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 5: Vehemently arguing back then that tobacco never had any nefarious intent,
• 2:17:26
  Speaker 5: never designed the product to be addictive, and they were
• 2:17:31
  Speaker 5: accusing people who said that of being conspiracy nuts.
• 2:17:35
  Speaker 4: Right, So I mean, here we are. I'm just saying
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 4: that right now.
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 5: You want to think about if you're super sure that
• 2:17:41
  Speaker 5: Facebook has never been in it for any other anything
• 2:17:44
  Speaker 5: other than free ex connection, you might think about how
• 2:17:49
  Speaker 5: a history's going to look on this in about twenty
• 2:17:51
  Speaker 5: thirty years.
• 2:17:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly where you said, we won't be asking these
• 2:17:55
  Speaker 3: questions anymore.
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 6: So you really give thought to how history will look
• 2:18:00
  Speaker 6: back on your.
• 2:18:01
  Speaker 4: Opinion, not my opinion.
• 2:18:02
  Speaker 5: I guess I look back on how my takes would
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 5: be viewed and through a historical limbs.
• 2:18:08
  Speaker 2: There you go, Wow, that's.
• 2:18:12
  Speaker 5: I also have a body of work. It's going to
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 5: be out there and I and.
• 2:18:16
  Speaker 2: What are you calling what we're doing here?
• 2:18:18
  Speaker 4: You know, we record this stuff that's saying, it just
• 2:18:25
  Speaker 4: goes out into the ether and it's gone.
• 2:18:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I can't remember who I think it
• 2:18:30
  Speaker 5: was Phillips. She used to like mock me for trying
• 2:18:32
  Speaker 5: to be so careful about what I said or I
• 2:18:35
  Speaker 5: wrote down.
• 2:18:35
  Speaker 4: He's like I said, one day, it's gone the next.
• 2:18:39
  Speaker 2: That used to be the case.
• 2:18:42
  Speaker 4: Now we call them podcasts.
• 2:18:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and everything is captured, that's on the air. But
• 2:18:46
  Speaker 3: you're right, you will have a body of work that
• 2:18:48
  Speaker 3: folks can go back and reference and read.
• 2:18:51
  Speaker 4: And it's not me anybody.
• 2:18:52
  Speaker 5: I mean, think about what you would tell your kids,
• 2:18:55
  Speaker 5: you know, I mean think about an adult right now saying, well, son,
• 2:18:58
  Speaker 5: let me tell you about when I was really on
• 2:19:00
  Speaker 5: our J Reynolds side, they were doing some really good
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 5: stuff for America.
• 2:19:05
  Speaker 2: That's a good point. Yeah, that's a good point.
• 2:19:06
  Speaker 3: And then the other story that you also sooth saved
• 2:19:10
  Speaker 3: your way.
• 2:19:10
  Speaker 5: To, Well, there is a There were big old special
• 2:19:14
  Speaker 5: elections results yesterday and you teased on them and the.
• 2:19:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked about them during JCS news, but we
• 2:19:20
  Speaker 3: didn't really talk about the implication.
• 2:19:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so the implication.
• 2:19:23
  Speaker 5: The bottom line is there were two special elections in
• 2:19:26
  Speaker 5: the legislative districts. The Democrats won, and I have talked
• 2:19:29
  Speaker 5: to and heard from pundits, excuse me, party operatives on
• 2:19:33
  Speaker 5: both sides.
• 2:19:33
  Speaker 4: Everybody was blown away by this. Democrats won both of them.
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 5: These were both red, very red districts, as you reported.
• 2:19:41
  Speaker 5: One of them is mar A Lago. It is Donald
• 2:19:43
  Speaker 5: Trump's district. It was won by nineteen points by Republicans.
• 2:19:47
  Speaker 5: Democrats won both of them. So there's this big sentiment
• 2:19:50
  Speaker 5: that Democrats are going to kick button November. I actually
• 2:19:52
  Speaker 5: have something in tomorrow's papers says I don't really expect
• 2:19:55
  Speaker 5: that to happen.
• 2:19:56
  Speaker 3: I didn't expect what happened yesterday, and the special election
• 2:19:58
  Speaker 3: is especially in Palm Beach, and I don't.
• 2:20:00
  Speaker 5: Because sometimes these special elections don't translate to November. However,
• 2:20:04
  Speaker 5: what I do think it's going to stop or have
• 2:20:07
  Speaker 5: an effect is Republicans in the state have been talking
• 2:20:10
  Speaker 5: very openly about trying to do jerrymandering, an off cycle
• 2:20:14
  Speaker 5: jerrymandering where they redraw the districts. And my theory was
• 2:20:18
  Speaker 5: that this special election is going to get them to
• 2:20:20
  Speaker 5: slow their role because their goal is no longer to
• 2:20:24
  Speaker 5: expand their turf. It's they need to defend what they
• 2:20:27
  Speaker 5: already have because they've got big tailwinds in Donald Trump's
• 2:20:31
  Speaker 5: unpopularity and just the pendulum that swims back and forth
• 2:20:34
  Speaker 5: and off your elections. And then Politico about an hour
• 2:20:38
  Speaker 5: ago just posted a piece that says special elections have
• 2:20:41
  Speaker 5: Republicans rethinking redistricting, So you might end.
• 2:20:44
  Speaker 4: Up having the party in charge doing the right.
• 2:20:47
  Speaker 5: Thing for the wrong reason, because exactly just because they
• 2:20:51
  Speaker 5: don't think there are enough chess pieces on the board
• 2:20:53
  Speaker 5: for them to arrange in their advantageously, in their face.
• 2:20:56
  Speaker 4: We don't think we could cheat and get away with it.
• 2:20:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it would be nice if they did slow
• 2:21:00
  Speaker 3: their role. Because they ended the legislative session without having
• 2:21:05
  Speaker 3: a budget. There's three special sessions that they have planned,
• 2:21:09
  Speaker 3: so they have to come back to do the budgets
• 2:21:11
  Speaker 3: that we can start fiscal year July first. Then they're
• 2:21:13
  Speaker 3: planning another special session on property taxes, and then third
• 2:21:17
  Speaker 3: special session was going to be about redistrict I think
• 2:21:19
  Speaker 3: you're right.
• 2:21:20
  Speaker 5: There's some chance they could combine some portion of those,
• 2:21:22
  Speaker 5: but you are right, those three issues are all things
• 2:21:24
  Speaker 5: they've said they're going to do.
• 2:21:26
  Speaker 4: They're all a big deal.
• 2:21:27
  Speaker 5: In fact, as we've talked about before, the budget is
• 2:21:29
  Speaker 5: the only thing they are required by the constitution. Have
• 2:21:32
  Speaker 5: not done it this year or I think it was
• 2:21:34
  Speaker 5: last year. At least two out of the last three years.
• 2:21:36
  Speaker 5: But the gerrymandering is a big deal. We only redistrict
• 2:21:39
  Speaker 5: once every decade on the heels of census.
• 2:21:41
  Speaker 4: The only reason.
• 2:21:42
  Speaker 5: To do it is to try to stack the deck
• 2:21:44
  Speaker 5: in your favor, and they have been a sort of
• 2:21:47
  Speaker 5: surprisingly open about their desire to do that until yesterday.
• 2:21:52
  Speaker 5: I think the results really blew them away. If you can,
• 2:21:55
  Speaker 5: if a Democrat can take over mar A Lago's.
• 2:21:57
  Speaker 2: District, well I think that.
• 2:21:59
  Speaker 3: I I think what makes that even more important is
• 2:22:02
  Speaker 3: when you see what happened in Texas, another red district
• 2:22:05
  Speaker 3: in Texas electing a Democrat, and it was like what
• 2:22:08
  Speaker 3: Texas did that?
• 2:22:10
  Speaker 5: And it's not terribly surprising. Traditionally that is what America does. Yeah,
• 2:22:14
  Speaker 5: when a Republican, when one party wins the White House
• 2:22:18
  Speaker 5: and especially in this case, has control of everything in Washington,
• 2:22:21
  Speaker 5: then the next off year election, the pendulum usually goes
• 2:22:24
  Speaker 5: very strong the other way. So writing all that, that
• 2:22:27
  Speaker 5: looks real right now.
• 2:22:29
  Speaker 3: So it'll be very interesting to see if we do
• 2:22:31
  Speaker 3: get that third special session.
• 2:22:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, like I say, I am guessing their goals are
• 2:22:36
  Speaker 5: more to preserve what they have rather than expand the empire.
• 2:22:39
  Speaker 4: But we'll see.
• 2:22:40
  Speaker 3: You know, my thing would be it'd just be nice
• 2:22:42
  Speaker 3: to see them because again for those who don't do
• 2:22:44
  Speaker 3: not know special sessions, you know, they get one every year,
• 2:22:48
  Speaker 3: that's the regular legislative session, but all of these others
• 2:22:51
  Speaker 3: we have to cover them as taxpayers.
• 2:22:53
  Speaker 5: So my extra money to write a column for Sunday
• 2:22:57
  Speaker 5: advancing my most unpopular fors that I have ever written,
• 2:23:01
  Speaker 5: and I write it about every four years just to
• 2:23:04
  Speaker 5: have people get furious at me. And it is that
• 2:23:07
  Speaker 5: we should actually pay legislators more.
• 2:23:10
  Speaker 2: And Jimmy makes that point all the time, and.
• 2:23:12
  Speaker 5: We should have them in session more often because you
• 2:23:15
  Speaker 5: make it a full time job because right now it
• 2:23:17
  Speaker 5: essentially is a full time job. You have to be
• 2:23:19
  Speaker 5: there as we're talking about. That's why I'm writing about
• 2:23:21
  Speaker 5: it repeatedly. For these sessions for three months, four months
• 2:23:25
  Speaker 5: at a time and another month here. Nobody holding down
• 2:23:27
  Speaker 5: a regular job can possibly take off two months one month,
• 2:23:30
  Speaker 5: and then in exchange for that, the total salary is
• 2:23:33
  Speaker 5: twenty nine thousand dollars. So no working class person can
• 2:23:36
  Speaker 5: possibly afford to be a state legislator. That's why we
• 2:23:39
  Speaker 5: don't have people in Tallahassee advancing working class issues. We
• 2:23:43
  Speaker 5: have independently wealthy people doing it. And I also think
• 2:23:46
  Speaker 5: we get all these issues crammed into four weeks and
• 2:23:49
  Speaker 5: they're just able to sneak things by they cram it.
• 2:23:51
  Speaker 5: They don't think through these things, they don't vet them,
• 2:23:53
  Speaker 5: they don't have enough public hearings for public citizens to
• 2:23:56
  Speaker 5: get up there. I think we'd be better served by
• 2:23:58
  Speaker 5: having the people who are paid an appropriate amount so
• 2:24:01
  Speaker 5: that we can afford to have people represent working class
• 2:24:03
  Speaker 5: interests and have them slow down the process.
• 2:24:06
  Speaker 4: In general, generally, I get it.
• 2:24:08
  Speaker 5: I don't like politicians, and I think life, liberty, and
• 2:24:12
  Speaker 5: justice are threatened when they're in session. But I'd rather
• 2:24:15
  Speaker 5: have something more contemplated. Con contemplative jack.
• 2:24:20
  Speaker 2: Oh, he's already reaching for it.
• 2:24:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, you got your own buzzer. I agree, because here's
• 2:24:26
  Speaker 3: part of the problem I remember is they had a
• 2:24:29
  Speaker 3: public comment period during the legislative session in Tallahassee. I
• 2:24:33
  Speaker 3: think it was the citizen initiative about getting amendments on
• 2:24:35
  Speaker 3: the ballot, and they first had like cut down the
• 2:24:38
  Speaker 3: time that you were allowed to talk, and then they
• 2:24:40
  Speaker 3: just turned your microphone off. So they literally do not
• 2:24:43
  Speaker 3: want to hear from the people of Florida.
• 2:24:45
  Speaker 5: They have had they have had that public comment been
• 2:24:48
  Speaker 5: trimmed down to as much as little as thirty seconds,
• 2:24:51
  Speaker 5: and I think fifteen seconds, definitely thirty seconds.
• 2:24:54
  Speaker 4: This is people who have driven ours from.
• 2:24:57
  Speaker 5: Key West, from Jacksonville, from Tampa, from Orlando, all the
• 2:25:00
  Speaker 5: way to Tallahassee just to have their mind, their their
• 2:25:04
  Speaker 5: views expressed on everything from property insurance, to unions, to
• 2:25:08
  Speaker 5: abortion and to citizens petitions, to any any of these things.
• 2:25:12
  Speaker 5: And they get thirty seconds because they said, well, we
• 2:25:15
  Speaker 5: just have two.
• 2:25:15
  Speaker 3: Weeks to do all this, which is again just more
• 2:25:18
  Speaker 3: And that's the part that infuriates means this open hostility
• 2:25:22
  Speaker 3: state government seems to have for the people of Florida.
• 2:25:25
  Speaker 3: So congratulations on calling two of the big stories today.
• 2:25:28
  Speaker 2: I do, I mean, I proves your metal. What do
• 2:25:31
  Speaker 2: you think? Jack? Are you duly impressed?
• 2:25:33
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah yeah, especially the way you pronounce its big words, templative, contemplative.
• 2:25:39
  Speaker 2: Way. Hey you got your ding?
• 2:25:43
  Speaker 4: Thank you?
• 2:25:44
  Speaker 2: Sound a little worried?
• 2:25:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, So real quick, last item I wanted to bring up.
• 2:25:48
  Speaker 3: This is from Channel nine. So you know how we're

  Speaker 3: dealing with the drought right now?
• 2:25:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah?

  Speaker 3: Did you know that it could affect if you're heading
• 2:25:55
  Speaker 3: to a restaurant, Central Florida.
• 2:25:57
  Speaker 4: What do you mean.
• 2:25:58
  Speaker 2: Water may not come to your table? Automatic?
• 2:26:01
  Speaker 4: Come on man.
• 2:26:02
  Speaker 3: The Southwest Florida Water Management District voted yesterday to implement
• 2:26:05
  Speaker 3: new water used restrictions for like seventeen Central Florida communities.
• 2:26:10
  Speaker 3: It includes like if your land is an acre, you know,
• 2:26:13
  Speaker 3: you can only water from eight pm to twelve am,
• 2:26:16
  Speaker 3: like all the times they tell you not to water?
• 2:26:17
  Speaker 5: Are They're not going to do anything to curb water
• 2:26:20
  Speaker 5: use from the bottled water companies.
• 2:26:22
  Speaker 2: Oh, of course we don't want to do that. Shut up,
• 2:26:25
  Speaker 2: we can't do that.
• 2:26:26
  Speaker 3: Very serious, no, no, But instead, these regulations are going to
• 2:26:30
  Speaker 3: affect residents and businesses in Sumter County, Danellan, the villages
• 2:26:34
  Speaker 3: in Marion County.
• 2:26:35
  Speaker 2: Think of the mixed drinks.
• 2:26:38
  Speaker 4: I don't mind. You have to ask for a glass
• 2:26:41
  Speaker 4: of water. It's oceans of Lake County.
• 2:26:43
  Speaker 6: There's not a restriction on That's what I drink when
• 2:26:45
  Speaker 6: I go to restaurants.

  Speaker 4: hours too.
• 2:28:19
  Speaker 2: Much, as.

• 2:28:23
  Speaker 3: get a little bit more from you in just a
• 2:28:25
  Speaker 3: little bit.
• 2:28:26
  Speaker 4: Actually, we have Bob Fryer tomorrow.
• 2:28:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Bob Fryer's going to be doing Bob Fryar. Oh
• 2:28:31
  Speaker 3: he is such a good time to work with as well.
• 2:28:34
  Speaker 3: You've been fun as well.
• 2:28:35
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm no Bob Fryar. No, you are not. Jack Well,
• 2:28:39
  Speaker 4: I know Bob Fryar and he is no Bob Fryar.
• 2:28:43
  Speaker 5: I think Bob Pryer would agree, Maxwell would agree exactly.
• 2:28:47
  Speaker 2: You have any plans for the rest of your week?
• 2:28:49
  Speaker 18: Though?
• 2:28:50
  Speaker 4: Oh you know what this is where it peaked.
• 2:28:55
  Speaker 2: Man Us and chicken Wings.
• 2:28:57
  Speaker 4: Now I got another column to write at least that
• 2:28:59
  Speaker 4: I know that for sure.
• 2:29:00
  Speaker 3: So yeah, now I know you guys were talking earlier.
• 2:29:03
  Speaker 3: You're a big cruiser as well, aren't you.
• 2:29:05
  Speaker 4: I am indeed?
• 2:29:06
  Speaker 3: Okay, So if you guys had one ship to recommend
• 2:29:08
  Speaker 3: to someone, because my fiance Chris has never been on
• 2:29:11
  Speaker 3: a cruise and we want to consider going on a cruise,
• 2:29:14
  Speaker 3: but there's so many options we don't know, like where
• 2:29:16
  Speaker 3: to even begin, and the last place you want to
• 2:29:18
  Speaker 3: begin is with a cruise company.
• 2:29:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it depends on what you're looking for.
• 2:29:23
  Speaker 5: And I don't know what Chris is. If you want
• 2:29:24
  Speaker 5: something like eye popping and kind of wild and party time,
• 2:29:31
  Speaker 5: the Utopia of the Seas, which is the giant ship
• 2:29:34
  Speaker 5: that does only weekends out of Canaveral, which my wife
• 2:29:38
  Speaker 5: and I do a lot, mostly because it's convenient because
• 2:29:40
  Speaker 5: we're party people. If you want something a little classier
• 2:29:43
  Speaker 5: or a little older people.
• 2:29:44
  Speaker 4: Celebrity does a very nice job.
• 2:29:47
  Speaker 5: MSc has an Italian theme thing, but they've got opera
• 2:29:50
  Speaker 5: on their ships.
• 2:29:51
  Speaker 2: But wow, but the thing, I mean that dying art form.
• 2:29:54
  Speaker 5: Well, but you know what's great about the opera on MSc.
• 2:29:56
  Speaker 5: It's condensed to forty five minutes, which is all the
• 2:29:59
  Speaker 5: opera anybody should ever need.
• 2:30:02
  Speaker 2: Man, you opera, the Hobbit movies.
• 2:30:04
  Speaker 6: I've been watching a lot, like a lot of YouTube
• 2:30:07
  Speaker 6: videos about cruising for an upcoming trip, and they had
• 2:30:10
  Speaker 6: one where it broke down the cruise lines and the
• 2:30:13
  Speaker 6: one that came in the high end cruises are number one, Yeah,
• 2:30:18
  Speaker 6: but number two Virgin Virgin.
• 2:30:22
  Speaker 5: If you don't want kids, Virgin they actually do not
• 2:30:25
  Speaker 5: let kids but I say they hate them, do not Jack,
• 2:30:29
  Speaker 5: And they have their traditional red night, which gets a
• 2:30:34
  Speaker 5: little spicy.
• 2:30:34
  Speaker 4: I think you.
• 2:30:36
  Speaker 5: I'm saying leather is not discouraged at the Uh.
• 2:30:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Jack, I didn't know.
• 2:30:42
  Speaker 5: You can get a if you get a balcony, which
• 2:30:44
  Speaker 5: they have some other names for Veranda, it's got a
• 2:30:47
  Speaker 5: hammock on it. That's another thing they do wing I
• 2:30:51
  Speaker 5: said hammocked, and another thing Virgin does and we have
• 2:30:55
  Speaker 5: a done version. Yet they do not have main dining rooms.
• 2:30:57
  Speaker 5: It's all specialty dining. It's all included, so that's another
• 2:31:01
  Speaker 5: thing to like it. Yeah, Virgin is coming on strong
• 2:31:03
  Speaker 5: all out of Miami.
• 2:31:05
  Speaker 6: I think it's expensive, but everything is included as opposed to.
• 2:31:09
  Speaker 4: Where they are or less a lot. Oh, I'm gonna
• 2:31:14
  Speaker 4: put an asterisk.
• 2:31:15
  Speaker 3: On the really booze package again. Always they get you
• 2:31:19
  Speaker 3: with the alcohol. Always what you got to bring those
• 2:31:22
  Speaker 3: ziplocks in?
• 2:31:23
  Speaker 5: And I think the Royal Cribbean's new ship, the one
• 2:31:26
  Speaker 5: that Darryl and I were both on for the same
• 2:31:29
  Speaker 5: week and never saw each other, The Star of the
• 2:31:31
  Speaker 5: Seas is pretty eye popping as well, and that's out
• 2:31:34
  Speaker 5: of Canavil as well.
• 2:31:35
  Speaker 14: Well.
• 2:31:35
  Speaker 3: I have to tell you if the cruise ship is
• 2:31:37
  Speaker 3: anything like their airline, I would definitely go with the
• 2:31:39
  Speaker 3: Virgin Cruise because it was the best transatlantic flight I've
• 2:31:42
  Speaker 3: ever been on, was with Virgin.
• 2:31:44
  Speaker 5: All Right, when you all are ready to book, I'll
• 2:31:45
  Speaker 5: put you with my wife who was our travel agent.
• 2:31:48
  Speaker 2: You got it? That is awesome? All right? Are you
• 2:31:51
  Speaker 2: ready for your moment to shine?
• 2:31:52
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna sligh.
• 2:31:53
  Speaker 2: All right, Jack, let's do you heard it here first?
• 2:31:57
  Speaker 23: Officially, if you heard it here first.
• 2:32:03
  Speaker 2: Just a moment to stretch. This feels awesome, Okay, Scott,
• 2:32:06
  Speaker 2: go all right.
• 2:32:07
  Speaker 5: As we mentioned earlier in the show, there was a
• 2:32:08
  Speaker 5: landmark ruling against YouTube and medoc used of being negligent
• 2:32:12
  Speaker 5: and designing intentionally addictive products, and we discussed this as
• 2:32:15
  Speaker 5: being a big tobacco moment.
• 2:32:17
  Speaker 4: Well, it may not end with lawsuits.
• 2:32:19
  Speaker 5: CNN is just now reporting that the lawsuit verdict is
• 2:32:22
  Speaker 5: empowering and embolding members of Congress from both parties to
• 2:32:26
  Speaker 5: push for more government regulations of social media, So keep
• 2:32:29
  Speaker 5: an eye on that. Also, while we were on the air,
• 2:32:32
  Speaker 5: Florida's Attorney general has announced his latest target. It doesn't
• 2:32:35
  Speaker 5: involve any of the pocketbook issues we talked about earlier
• 2:32:38
  Speaker 5: in the show. He's not targeting insurance companies that might
• 2:32:41
  Speaker 5: be overcharging homeowners or utility companies raising rates. Know the
• 2:32:45
  Speaker 5: latest target of Florida Attorney General James uth Myers is
• 2:32:49
  Speaker 5: wait for it, the NFL.
• 2:32:52
  Speaker 2: Myer says, repeat that again, please.
• 2:32:54
  Speaker 4: That's the National Football League.
• 2:32:56
  Speaker 5: Ruth Meyer says he believes the NFL is unfairly hiring
• 2:33:01
  Speaker 5: people based on racial and gender preferences, and he is, quote,
• 2:33:06
  Speaker 5: according to his release, putting Commissioner Roger Goodell on notice.
• 2:33:10
  Speaker 5: Then he intends to stop.
• 2:33:12
  Speaker 4: And finally, while.
• 2:33:13
  Speaker 5: We were laughing listening over the last few hours, ACU
• 2:33:16
  Speaker 5: weather released its hurricane forecast for the season.
• 2:33:18
  Speaker 4: Oh no, their prediction three to five.
• 2:33:21
  Speaker 5: Tropical storms making an impact on the United States, just
• 2:33:24
  Speaker 5: a little slower than normal. Some of these horse Now,
• 2:33:28
  Speaker 5: some of these hurricane forecasts have historically been a little
• 2:33:31
  Speaker 5: laugh off target. But the forecasters do seem pretty united
• 2:33:35
  Speaker 5: this year and predicting a slower than normal season.
• 2:33:38
  Speaker 4: Let's hope.
• 2:33:39
  Speaker 14: So.
• 2:33:39
  Speaker 3: Let's hope so because we did walk away with a
• 2:33:41
  Speaker 3: slower than expected season last year despite all those direct warnings.
• 2:33:44
  Speaker 5: Right, even though there was like an armageddon that just
• 2:33:47
  Speaker 5: churned out.
• 2:33:49
  Speaker 3: We had a couple of storms that ramped up to
• 2:33:52
  Speaker 3: five like in twelve minutes.
• 2:33:53
  Speaker 2: Right, Yes, I hadn't seen that before I did.
• 2:33:55
  Speaker 4: That was a good season. Let's do that.
• 2:33:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, Scott, Thank you very much. You heard
• 2:34:00
  Speaker 3: it here first on the Jim Culbert Show.

• 2:35:03
  Speaker 6: Speaking of our YouTube chat, that is where we post
• 2:35:06
  Speaker 6: our question of the day. If you couldn't afford the insurance,
• 2:35:10
  Speaker 6: would you sell your home or go without homeowners insurance?
• 2:35:14
  Speaker 4: How many people? What do you think was the majority there?
• 2:35:18
  Speaker 3: I think the majority of people would would go naked
• 2:35:20
  Speaker 3: today and sell.
• 2:35:21
  Speaker 6: I'm going to say like eighty two thirds, sixty seven
• 2:35:24
  Speaker 6: percent said they would go without insurance.
• 2:35:27
  Speaker 4: A third of them said they'd just sell crappy choices.
• 2:35:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, very crappy choices.
• 2:35:31
  Speaker 3: And if you want to know what we're talking about,
• 2:35:33
