  Speaker 1: Johnny Kats The Morning News ninety three WIBC. My name
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: is Craig Collins, filling in, thrilled to be with you.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: A bunch of stuff to talk about all over the place.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: I want that we will rock you. Get it back there.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: It is there.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: It is awesome. Thank you, Carl wanted to wait for
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: it all right. Anyway, Queen is awesome. It is time
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: for our Boer remodeling popcorn moment. This is something that's
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: brought to you by Boer. Look them up. They can
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: fix all kinds of stuff in your house. But let's
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: go ahead and get this going, all right. I should
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: just hit play on the audio, but I can't help
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: wanting to contextualize Stephen Colbert in his stupidity. Two nights
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: ago he lied, and then last night he decided to
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: lie some more. That's what I'm going to give you
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: so far herey.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: I said my piece. Last night, we made some jokes.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: That's what they pay me for. And I was ready
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: to let the whole thing go until a few hours
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: ago when my group chat blowed up because without every row,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Mike Goars to Me Corporation put out this press release,
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: this statement. Now, this is a surprisingly small piece of
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: paper considering how many butts it's trying to cover.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: This is a surprisingly dumb segment, considering how much it's
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: trying to cover your butt. You're pretending as though you're
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: still fighting a power that you weren't fighting at all
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: in it. They say.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: The Late Show was not prohibited by CBS from broadcasting
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: the interview with Representative James Tellerico provided legal guidance that
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: the broadcast could trigger the FCC equal time rule for
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: two other candidates, including Representative Jasmine Crockett, and presented options
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: for how the equal time for other candidates could be fulfilled.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: The Lay Show decided to present the interview through its
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: YouTube channel with on air promotion on the broadcast, rather
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: than potentially providing the equal time options. Now, clearly this
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: statement was written by and I'm guessing four lawyers.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Hi here, I got to stop right there. You know
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: what's so amazing about this? He goes on to say
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: that he's had Crockett on a show before. John Cornyn,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the Republican who's the current person in the office that
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: these people are running for, also would have had to
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: been provided time on the show. The incumbent would have
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: had to be interviewed for equal time. That made Colbert mad.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing. He goes on to say, like
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: I've had krockodd on, all of this is crap. There's
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: a reason that radio shows, television shows, all kinds of
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: broadcast things don't have candidates on during election cycles, and
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: it's because of equal time. You can have a person
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: on who's in an office, you know, when they're not
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: running for anything. If someone's not up for reelection, you
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: can put that person on television and talk to them.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: You can have Jasmine Crocodden when she's not running for things.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: This is very different. Colbert's pompous stupidity is incredible with
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: this topic or with this you know, whole thing. It's
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: just amazing to watch him be such a manipulative piece
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of crap because he's pretending there's a bad guy that
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: doesn't exist, because of how angry he is that he
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: got fired. This is why people who get fired from television, radio,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: anything don't get a chance to say goodbye to their audience.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: When a lot of people, myself included, would do a
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: respectful job in that opportunity. You wouldn't let anger be
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: at the forefront of the way you conduct yourself, you'd
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: want to talk about something else. So many people in
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: situations like this don't get that opportunity because of the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Stephen Colberts who ruin it for everyone by being complete
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: pieces of crap when they behave the way that they're
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: behaving right now that he's behaving right now, and all
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the things he's saying. But it's crazy. His initial excuse
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to not put taal Rico on television because he would
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: have had to put John Cornan on TV, who was
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: a Republican, was ridiculous to anyone who understands this. And
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: he's counting on you not He's counting on you being
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: dumb enough to not know the rules, And I'm not
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: trying to offend you and not willing to look into
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: these rules, which are very easy to look up to
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: understand what actually is occurring. He wants you to be uninformed,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: because that's how these people win. They win by making
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: certain jokes or certain statements to uninformed people and encouraging
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: those uninformed people to take action without understanding what it
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: is they're acting about. But anyway, I'm just I'm so
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: annoyed with everything Colbert in this that i had to
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: play it and had to rant about it as the
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: popcorn moment. There is other stuff, though, I do want
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: to play another thing because I do like to have
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: fun in this segment before we take a break. I
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: love this audio. A private investigator by the name of
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Brandon went on TikTok to demonstrate that a person at
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: a job was lying about an injury. I'll play this
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: audio and then we can all react to it. But
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: the guy found this employee who said that they needed
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: to go on you know, short term disability and they
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: were snowboarding, well, apparently injured. That's not going to work out.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: You're not going to be able to claim that you're
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: injured at work and then still capable of snowboarding. Here
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: we go, I'm a private investigator for it's fall at
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: super Mountain and the guy's claiming an injury and he's
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: here snowboarding. So and there he goes, completely lying about
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: his injury. His employer will love that. Yeah, the employer
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: will love that. This guy is gonna get a raise.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: The private investigator dude who works for a company that
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: somehow tracked down the guy that's snowboarding. What do we
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: think of a guy who lies at a job, claims
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: you're injured, and then unapologetically goes out and has fun.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: I slipped a disk and now I'm going spnowboarding. I'm
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: gonna take on the mountain. What's the injury? That'd be
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: my first question, really, But when you go snowboarding, it
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter what's in that something's going to be involved
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: in that snowboarding accident as you make your way down
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: the mountain. And I don't think I would let this
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: person through the door with it. Now, I feel like,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: give me your keys, it's done, or change the locks
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: or something.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Absolutely No.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: No.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: I love that you said what's the injury because that's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: something that went through my brain too. But snowboarding uniquely,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: you know stressful sport that there's no injury that you
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: could claim makes you incapable of work but capable of snowboarding.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: There's nothing that's going to be no, check both of
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: those boxes. So I just love everything. Have you snowboarded before? Yeah, Matty,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: yes I have. Are you good at it?
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: No?
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: I was awful. I actually fell one time and it
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: hits another snowboarder in the head with my snowboard. Oh yeah,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: it was really It always traumatic.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: It was up in South at the same three rivers
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: like decades decades ago, and the students freads just surrounded
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: me that want to fight, like I'm sorry. Then I
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: just went down the hill and my friends and I
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: we packed up our stuff and left. But yeah, yeah,
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: the tip of the board Christ his skull, he hit
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: his skull and he was just laying there. It was traumatic.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: He was okay, was he was? He okay? Did get
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: up there?
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah? And I didn't get up. I think his friends
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: helped him up after we left up. That's what I happened.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Ye, fun When was it? When did this happen?
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: I must have been early twenties, so like eighty years
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: ago or something. I mean, it was a long time ago.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: I'm surprised.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: This is the first time. The reason I asked the
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: reason I ask you this is because I might have
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: been there. What I love about your story is that
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: if you were twenty or early twenties, then I would
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: have been a teenager and I went to that place
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: you're talking about in South Bend, and I used to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: snowboard and sirt and uh water not water ski ski there.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: So yes, I used to go to the same place.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I hope I was there. I hope you hit me
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't me, But I wish you would hit
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: me in the head with this man, how crazy would
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: that have been?
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Craig, thanks for not kicking my ass. I really appreciate it.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Man, No, I couldn't. I would have been like thirteen
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: at the time. I wouldn't have been able to make
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: you where.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: I was petrified. I mean, you know, I'm not going
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: to I'm not going to make it sound like that's
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: a tough guy, right, I mean I felt bad.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I am this guy.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: You don't hit somebody with your snowboard and.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: You snowow Here's the thing I was on.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, he says, I was on the mountain I
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: shouldn't have been on. It was like one of the
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: more advanced mountains, and I was still stand the bunny Yeah. Yeah,
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: I didn't want to do the bunny hill anymore because
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: it's called Bundy Hill.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: You know, right, you don't do that. You gotta do it.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I've snowboarded and I've skied at that exact place that
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: you're talking about around the time you would have been there.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Wasn't very good either. The snow was terrible make excuses now, and.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Some of it was artificial. They had to throw it
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: on there because he didn't always snow enough, so it
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: was awful. Yeah, but it's all we had, Matt, It's
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: all we had at that time. Right, we got to
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: take a break. I hope you hit my friend with
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: a snowboard. I hope that's what happened. I'm gonna look
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: into that everund Matt bears. Yeah, he's been broken since
