- 1:22Speaker 3: doing today?
- 1:23Speaker 4: All fat and sassy.
- 1:24Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:25Speaker 3: Gearing up for Suds Pups.
- 1:27Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:28Speaker 3: Absolutely. Coming up later this month, September 26th, Suds Pups
- 1:31Speaker 3: and Pints will be down downtown Mount Dora for a
- 1:34Speaker 3: dog washing event. And it is going to be a blast.
- 1:38Speaker 4: It's going to be, actually, it's an extra special year
- 1:40Speaker 4: because the Humane Society of Lake County, this is their
- 1:44Speaker 4: 50th year.
- 1:44Speaker 3: Oh, that's cool.
- 1:45Speaker 4: Of being a no-kill shelter.
- 1:47Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And we're also celebrating Jim joining us
- 1:49Speaker 3: this year.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yes, we are.
- 1:51Speaker 4: We're not going to have to have listeners dress up
- 1:53Speaker 4: as Jim.
- 1:53Speaker 5: And I've got to tell you something else. What you
- 1:55Speaker 5: guys don't know.
- 1:58Speaker 3: Is I may have something in plan to make up
- 2:01Speaker 3: for my absence of last year, an idea that will
- 2:03Speaker 3: possibly raise some more money for all people involved.
- 2:06Speaker 4: Can you give us a hint?
- 2:09Speaker 7: No.
- 2:11Speaker 4: But maybe did you did you hear.
- 2:14Speaker 3: The little nervous edge to that? Well, here's the thing.
- 2:18Speaker 3: I know it will work. That's the thing is like
- 2:22Speaker 3: I know for a fact I can more than likely
- 2:26Speaker 3: likely guarantee we'll have an overwhelming response to the opportunity
- 2:30Speaker 3: that I'm going to offer.
- 2:32Speaker 4: Wow.
- 2:33Speaker 3: So I will just say I'm leaning on my perception
- 2:37Speaker 3: to make some dough. Okay, so that will make more
- 2:41Speaker 3: money for the charity, which is the Humane Society of
- 2:44Speaker 3: Lake County. It will, yes. We are going to make
- 2:46Speaker 3: some money for the charity for sure. We also have
- 2:48Speaker 3: some good silent art. auction items that we're procuring as well.
- 2:51Speaker 4: I want to thank you for some of the items
- 2:53Speaker 4: that you've been able to secure for us so far.
- 2:56Speaker 4: And if there's other businesses out there that want to
- 3:00Speaker 4: come up with a basket or something that they would
- 3:02Speaker 4: love to donate to our silent auction again, all of
- 3:04Speaker 4: the proceeds go to the Humane Society of Lake County.
- 3:07Speaker 4: So they're completely community driven. They don't get grants or
- 3:11Speaker 4: any kind of. big money from like the National SPCA
- 3:14Speaker 4: or anything. It's all local. Whom should they email if
- 3:18Speaker 4: someone wanted to make a donation, Deb?
- 3:19Speaker 5: Deb at RealRadio.fm. Yeah, Deb at RealRadio.fm. I got some
- 3:24Speaker 5: stuff coming from my wife's company. They deal with some
- 3:26Speaker 5: pretty big brands out there. It's going to be kind
- 3:28Speaker 5: of a cool, a couple of cool baskets there. We
- 3:30Speaker 5: have our basket coming. It's going to have a cigar.
- 3:32Speaker 5: It's going to have some liquor in there. It's going
- 3:34Speaker 5: to have some cool stuff from the radio show. I'm
- 3:36Speaker 5: going to have some rounds of golf. Our buddy Ryan
- 3:39Speaker 5: out there has been a big listener. He listens all
- 3:40Speaker 5: the time. Played a couple times with him. Great guy.
- 3:42Speaker 4: Thank you, Ryan.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Owns an irrigation company out there. Has a good hookup
- 3:45Speaker 3: with a one of the most renowned golf courses in
- 3:47Speaker 3: all of Central Florida. Actually, two of them. We're going
- 3:49Speaker 3: to have foursomes for both of those to auction off.
- 3:52Speaker 3: So we're starting off good. And our title sponsor, Clausman Law.
- 3:57Speaker 3: Glenn will be there as well, and he's got new
- 3:59Speaker 3: shirts he wants to give away.
- 4:00Speaker 9: Yeah, nice.
- 4:01Speaker 8: Wow, exactly.
- 4:02Speaker 4: And don't forget, thanks to the official beer of Suds, Pops,
- 4:05Speaker 4: and Pines, Guinness, we're going to have a nice LED
- 4:08Speaker 4: truck out there with college football on it. We're going
- 4:11Speaker 4: to have cornhole. Yeah, so it's going to be a–
- 4:15Speaker 4: we're going to have new and fun things. So even
- 4:17Speaker 4: though you may have been there the previous three years,
- 4:19Speaker 4: this is our fourth year. We want to bang it
- 4:21Speaker 4: out right.
- 4:22Speaker 3: I really want to make this the biggest year we've
- 4:24Speaker 3: had so far.
- 4:24Speaker 5: Really, I do. I mean, I think it's time to
- 4:26Speaker 5: step this thing up and make it like a– almost
- 4:28Speaker 5: like a town takeover.
- 4:30Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:31Speaker 5: Daryl Penny and Pawfection Dog Training will be on site.
- 4:34Speaker 5: And if you want details, we have them on our website, realradio.fm. Yeah, exactly.
- 4:39Speaker 4: They've got some new games they're planning this year.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Can't wait.
- 4:42Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be a lot of fun. Really
- 4:44Speaker 3: excited about it this year for sure.
- 4:45Speaker 4: Well, I'm excited to hear what your plan is.
- 4:48Speaker 3: Yeah, all right.
- 4:49Speaker 5: 407-916-1041.
- 4:49Speaker 3: Text us at 77031. No, I will not be washing
- 4:52Speaker 3: cars in a Speedo. But what about dogs? I will
- 4:56Speaker 3: not wash a dog in a Speedo. You will not
- 4:58Speaker 3: see me in a Speedo. I'm not doing that. My
- 5:02Speaker 3: God almighty, nobody wants to see that. You think I'm getting.
- 5:05Speaker 5: Photographs that are going to be online forever in a Speedo?
- 5:08Speaker 3: You must be crazy. We have photographs of you in
- 5:10Speaker 3: a bathtub. Yeah, yeah. I mean, that is true. Covered
- 5:15Speaker 3: in bubbles. I will show you me shirtless. I'm not
- 5:17Speaker 3: really that ashamed of that. But, I mean, I'm not
- 5:19Speaker 3: showing you, you know. We have photographs of you with hair.
- 5:22Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 5:23Speaker 3: That's even worse.
- 5:24Speaker 4: You're right. It is weird.
- 5:25Speaker 3: Look, I think it's weird. When I see old pictures
- 5:27Speaker 3: of me throwbacks that get up online, I'm like, who
- 5:29Speaker 3: in the F is that guy? That ratty-ass red-looking hair.
- 5:34Speaker 4: It is the weirdest thing. It is.
- 5:36Speaker 3: All right.
- 5:37Speaker 7: 407-916-1041.
- 5:38Speaker 5: Text us 77031.
- 5:40Speaker 3: I want to bring this up now, but I can't
- 5:41Speaker 3: because it's part of the what you do that's new thing.
- 5:44Speaker 3: But it is a great question. And what you do
- 5:47Speaker 3: that's new, one of the videos is this guy that–
- 5:50Speaker 3: He rides subways. Is it not subway confessions? Is it
- 5:54Speaker 3: something else? Subway takes. Subway takes.
- 5:56Speaker 1: Right.
- 5:56Speaker 3: Where he goes on and he talks to random people
- 5:58Speaker 3: on subways and ask them for hot takes and stuff.
- 6:01Speaker 3: And one of the hot takes from this one young
- 6:03Speaker 3: lady that was on the subway is one of the
- 6:05Speaker 3: best ever.
- 6:06Speaker 4: I thought so, too.
- 6:07Speaker 6: I think.
- 6:08Speaker 3: Well, let's just go and talk about it real quick.
- 6:09Speaker 3: It is one of the best ever.
- 6:11Speaker 5: And it's funny that people get annoyed by this.
- 6:15Speaker 4: Or don't even think of it.
- 6:16Speaker 3: Don't even think of it. Do you know what I'm
- 6:18Speaker 3: talking about? The airplane? The airplane thing. Like when people
- 6:22Speaker 3: cheer when you land successfully, I got no problem with that.
- 6:25Speaker 3: Like I'm cheering right next to them. I don't find
- 6:28Speaker 3: anything juvenile about it. I don't find anything about that
- 6:31Speaker 3: annoying in the least. As a matter of fact, Jack
- 6:34Speaker 3: and I were on a flight going to Chicago when
- 6:36Speaker 3: we both worked for the XFL yesterday. Years and years ago.
- 6:39Speaker 4: Not a honeymoon?
- 6:40Speaker 3: No, no.
- 6:43Speaker 5: This was the worst flight I was ever on in
- 6:44Speaker 5: my life. And this is like, and I'm going to
- 6:46Speaker 5: tell you, it's not just us saying it. You know,
- 6:48Speaker 5: we've told this story a number of times before. You know,
- 6:51Speaker 5: there are coaches that were part of that team that
- 6:52Speaker 5: had traveled with NFL and college teams their entire career,
- 6:56Speaker 5: had taken thousands of flights. And they said it was
- 7:00Speaker 5: the most harrowing experience they'd ever had on an airplane
- 7:03Speaker 5: flying into O'Hare Airport in the fall, I believe it was.
- 7:07Speaker 3: No, no, no, no. It was April 6th.
- 7:09Speaker 7: Spring.
- 7:10Speaker 5: There you go.
- 7:11Speaker 3: Super windy. And we almost saw the wing literally as
- 7:14Speaker 3: we're landing almost touch the ground. The plane was so sideways.
- 7:17Speaker 3: When that thing hit the ground, dudes, we're praying like
- 7:20Speaker 3: knee praying. Not like, oh, thank God, walking out the
- 7:22Speaker 3: airport holding their bags. Dude, they were on their knees.
- 7:25Speaker 3: Like just praying to God, thanking God for getting them
- 7:28Speaker 3: down on the ground. That plane was moving in directions
- 7:30Speaker 3: planes should not move. It was spinning, dude.
- 7:32Speaker 2: It was crazy.
- 7:32Speaker 4: I had that experience coming back from England. We're supposed
- 7:35Speaker 4: to land in Orlando. That was where the hurricane was
- 7:39Speaker 4: supposed to go. Hurricane decided to stay in Miami. So
- 7:42Speaker 4: we had to land in that. And it was one
- 7:45Speaker 4: of those flights where you would drop a couple hundred feet.
- 7:48Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 7:48Speaker 4: And you just kept seeing the runway getting closer and closer.
- 7:51Speaker 8: Oh, yeah.
- 7:52Speaker 4: And that's when you started hearing the crying, the praying,
- 7:55Speaker 4: the throwing up.
- 7:56Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, man.
- 7:57Speaker 4: And when we got off that flight and saw the
- 8:00Speaker 4: pilots walking, I said, hey, did you just fly that
- 8:03Speaker 4: American Airlines flight from Gatwick? And the pilot was like, yeah.
- 8:07Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 8:07Speaker 4: And I was like, thank you.
- 8:09Speaker 7: Right.
- 8:09Speaker 8: Exactly.
- 8:10Speaker 4: And that's what she's saying.
- 8:11Speaker 5: You high five.
- 8:12Speaker 4: I mean, because you have to have skill. I mean,
- 8:14Speaker 4: it's one thing to be a pilot. It's another thing
- 8:16Speaker 4: to be a pilot when you're dealing with, like you said, Jack.
- 8:19Speaker 4: A plane moving in directions, you've been taught a plane's
- 8:22Speaker 4: not supposed to do and still survive.
- 8:24Speaker 3: Oh, and let me tell you something else, too. It
- 8:26Speaker 3: wasn't like we're flying in some luxury jet with all
- 8:28Speaker 3: the safety features. Let me tell you, you could see
- 8:30Speaker 3: where the things were bolted to the ground. This thing
- 8:32Speaker 3: was like a Mexican cab of an airplane. You walked
- 8:37Speaker 3: out of the ass of it. You didn't even walk
- 8:38Speaker 3: out the door.
- 8:40Speaker 5: It was the charter flight for the Miami Hurricanes. Not
- 8:44Speaker 5: a good choice of name. It was like an old
- 8:46Speaker 5: Florida Air airliner.
- 8:48Speaker 3: I'm serious, man. That thing had duct tape on it.
- 8:51Speaker 4: I think I saw that in Hotel Transylvania.
- 8:54Speaker 3: I will cheer gladly when the plane lands. No problem.
- 8:57Speaker 3: And I'm just with her as well. Tip a hundo.
- 8:59Speaker 3: I'm good for that. Thanks for getting me down, buddy.
- 9:02Speaker 4: It's funny, too. It could be cultural because someone just
- 9:04Speaker 4: texted us at 77031. Puerto Ricans always clap when we
- 9:08Speaker 4: land on our island. It's tradition. The whole plane does it.
- 9:11Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 9:12Speaker 4: I've experienced that, yeah, when landing in Colombia and.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Stuff like that.
- 9:15Speaker 7: Oh, really?
- 9:15Speaker 3: I didn't know that.
- 9:15Speaker 2: It's like, yay!
- 9:17Speaker 4: But then it's just an excuse to party.
- 9:19Speaker 3: We flew the Dominican. We didn't get any of that Dominican.
- 9:21Speaker 3: Nobody was yelling and crying. Nobody really did that when
- 9:24Speaker 3: we landed there.
- 9:25Speaker 9: No? No.
- 9:27Speaker 3: But it was a good flight. So I guess we're fine.
- 9:30Speaker 4: All right.
- 9:31Speaker 9: 407-916-1041.
- 9:31Speaker 3: Text us. Again, 77031. So, you know, again, this data
- 9:35Speaker 3: center thing is just, you know, perpetual. You can't get
- 9:37Speaker 3: away from it anymore. Like the flock camera thing. So
- 9:39Speaker 3: that thing shut down yesterday, right?
- 9:42Speaker 4: We got lots of that coming up during JCS News
- 9:44Speaker 4: as well.
- 9:44Speaker 3: And, you know, I heard a comment today regarding the
- 9:48Speaker 3: data centers because one of them, remember the one I
- 9:50Speaker 3: was telling you guys about that was built in South Haven, Mississippi,
- 9:52Speaker 3: which happens to be relatively close to some family members
- 9:54Speaker 3: that live up there in Mississippi. And I remember I
- 9:57Speaker 3: told you I text him and I said, hey, look,
- 9:58Speaker 3: are you going to be close to this thing? He
- 10:00Speaker 3: didn't know. Well, it's built. And right now they're powering
- 10:03Speaker 3: it with six turbines, like turbine generators that run like
- 10:06Speaker 3: 24 seven until they get the power plant, I guess,
- 10:09Speaker 3: hooked up or whatever. And they're standing away, you guys
- 10:12Speaker 3: got the decibel meter and know the whole thing. And
- 10:15Speaker 3: somebody had asked in the context of the story in
- 10:18Speaker 3: the comments, do you think that people that live next
- 10:20Speaker 3: to these data centers, because it's the ultimate bad thing,
- 10:23Speaker 3: because if you don't sell your house beforehand, before they
- 10:25Speaker 3: start breaking ground, Once the data center gets in and
- 10:28Speaker 3: gets set up and the noise starts, your property value drops.
- 10:32Speaker 3: You know, it's that much more harder to sell your
- 10:35Speaker 3: home when there's a constant hum. This guy says he
- 10:38Speaker 3: feels like a pressure in his head 24 hours a
- 10:41Speaker 3: day from the noise from it. And my comment was, like,
- 10:45Speaker 3: do you think if data centers said, well, we're going
- 10:47Speaker 3: to go out and we're going to start testing the
- 10:48Speaker 3: decibel levels of our machines, right? And at a certain
- 10:52Speaker 3: decibel level, we're going to pay you for living in
- 10:55Speaker 3: that area. In other words, let's say if you live
- 10:58Speaker 3: within a mile or 500 feet or a half a
- 11:01Speaker 3: mile and it's louder, we'll pay you $ 500 or $ 800
- 11:04Speaker 3: a month to live there until it gets to the
- 11:07Speaker 3: point where the decibel level shows normal or relatively normal levels.
- 11:11Speaker 3: Do you think people would go for that, or do
- 11:13Speaker 3: you think they would still be against data centers coming
- 11:16Speaker 3: to their area? You'll get a few. People, they were
- 11:20Speaker 3: sitting up in your neighborhood and they were going to
- 11:21Speaker 3: go around the neighborhood. I tell you what, we've got
- 11:22Speaker 3: a data center we want to build here, and I
- 11:24Speaker 3: know that people are really against it. The location for
- 11:26Speaker 3: us is absolutely perfect. How about we pay you $ 1, 500
- 11:28Speaker 3: a month to live here?
- 11:31Speaker 4: That won't cover the medical bills for everything that could
- 11:33Speaker 4: potentially go wrong.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Basically, that's kind of what that guy was saying. He says, look,
- 11:37Speaker 3: it's not just me. It's just my family. It's the
- 11:39Speaker 3: same way that we feel this weird pressure. We can't
- 11:41Speaker 3: sell the house. We would be upside down. We would
- 11:43Speaker 3: lose money. But I don't know that that's not coming
- 11:47Speaker 3: from these data centers, like programs that go out in
- 11:50Speaker 3: the neighborhoods and start measuring levels of decibels daily. And
- 11:54Speaker 3: the intrusion of that and then paying them or buying
- 11:57Speaker 3: the property, they can afford it.
- 11:58Speaker 5: Yeah, the data center should have to buy the property
- 12:01Speaker 5: at market value.
- 12:02Speaker 3: Yeah, why don't they just build– my wife and I
- 12:05Speaker 3: were just commenting going up and down the turnpike this weekend.
- 12:08Speaker 3: They built those giant concrete walls that look to be
- 12:10Speaker 3: like 15, 20 feet high to protect people who live
- 12:13Speaker 3: on the other side from the road noise that would
- 12:15Speaker 3: be constant. It's a highway. It's an interstate.
- 12:17Speaker 5: Why don't they just offer that? Why don't they just
- 12:19Speaker 5: encircle these data centers with these giant walls? They can't
- 12:22Speaker 5: be that expensive. How they're building multi-billion dollar data centers.
- 12:26Speaker 4: Apparently some of the sound waves cannot be absorbed that way.
- 12:30Speaker 4: And they can go around those structures and still make
- 12:33Speaker 4: it out into the community.
- 12:34Speaker 3: Oh, because of the frequency?
- 12:35Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
- 12:35Speaker 3: They're slippery. Slippery sound waves.
- 12:37Speaker 7: All right.
- 12:38Speaker 8: 407-916-1041.
- 12:38Speaker 7: Texas 77031.
- 12:38Speaker 3: Got a lot to talk about today. Pheromone maxing is
- 12:40Speaker 3: coming up a little bit later.
- 12:46Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, Blair.
- 12:48Speaker 3: You know who's doing it.
- 12:49Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
- 12:50Speaker 4: I don't, but if I do, I'm avoiding him.
- 12:51Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 12:52Speaker 5: Take a shower, you stinky beast.
- 12:53Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. What the hell's wrong with you?
- 12:55Speaker 3: What do you got for news?
- 12:57Speaker 4: Governor DeSantis declares September Florida Preparedness Month. The state attorney
- 13:03Speaker 4: responds to rumors of her second suspension and out West
- 13:08Speaker 4: taking a sniff out of crime or maybe putting the sniff.
- 13:13Speaker 11: Oh.
- 13:14Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 13:14Speaker 4: Into crime.
- 13:15Speaker 3: Plenty of sniffs and crime in California, for the record.
- 13:17Speaker 3: Back to pheromone max.
- 13:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:19Speaker 4: You're not going to want to pheromone max this, dude.
- 13:21Speaker 4: But we're going to talk about that and more coming
- 13:22Speaker 4: up next during JCS News.
- 13:23Speaker 7: All right.

- 13:37Speaker 4: Monday's ugly sister.
- 13:38Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 13:39Speaker 3: Tuesday's a really bizarre day for me. Don't know why.

- 13:49Speaker 3: Well, there you go. All right, 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031.
- 13:52Speaker 3: Welcome back. I'm Jim.
- 13:54Speaker 5: Jack is right over there. And Deb has your news.
- 13:56Speaker 5: Let's get it.
- 13:58Speaker 2: It's time for JCS News.
- 14:01Speaker 7: Wow.
- 14:02Speaker 2: Has this guy got to.
- 14:03Speaker 1: Put his name on everything?
- 14:04Speaker 3: It's in my contract, dude.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Here's the news on the Jim Colbert Show.
- 14:09Speaker 4: And JCS News is brought to you by that mortgage guy, Don.
- 14:12Speaker 4: Tropical storm Edward has made landfall near the Texas-Louisiana border.
- 14:17Speaker 4: Along the Gulf Coast, the storm is set to bring
- 14:20Speaker 4: heavy rain to the region. Edward is expected to weaken
- 14:23Speaker 4: as it moves inland tonight. At last check, the storm
- 14:25Speaker 4: is packing winds of 50 miles per hour. And although
- 14:28Speaker 4: it's not expected to impact Florida, folks on the Gulf
- 14:31Speaker 4: Coast are still asked to be vigilant. To that end,
- 14:35Speaker 4: Governor Ron DeSantis is declaring September Florida Preparedness Month. He's
- 14:39Speaker 4: urging residents to prepare for potential disasters, especially during the
- 14:43Speaker 4: peak of hurricane season. Floridians are encouraged to review their
- 14:47Speaker 4: disaster plans, restock emergency supplies, and know their evacuation routes.
- 14:52Speaker 4: Disaster preparedness supplies, this is good news, are now permanently
- 14:56Speaker 4: exempt from Florida's sales tax. which means residents can build
- 14:59Speaker 4: or restock their emergency kits year-round. You guys a little
- 15:02Speaker 4: weirded out that we've made it this far and basically nothing?
- 15:06Speaker 3: I mean, nothing. I was talking to Debra about it
- 15:08Speaker 3: before the show today. I was like, it's wild. It's
- 15:10Speaker 3: September and not even a breath of a hurricane. I mean, yeah, exactly.
- 15:15Speaker 8: Thankfully.
- 15:16Speaker 3: Knocking on for Micah there. Shut your pie holes.
- 15:18Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 15:20Speaker 3: Even Dolly kind of peered out and is just turning
- 15:22Speaker 3: into some storms now.
- 15:22Speaker 9: Well, I mean.
- 15:23Speaker 3: But they're getting murdered on the Pacific.
- 15:25Speaker 4: I know.
- 15:26Speaker 5: Like four in the Pacific.
- 15:27Speaker 4: Well, that's an El Nino, right?
- 15:29Speaker 10: It is, yeah.
- 15:30Speaker 4: That's an El Nino year. And you knew that Dolly
- 15:33Speaker 4: couldn't do anything but bring beneficial rain.
- 15:35Speaker 8: Right, right.
- 15:36Speaker 5: You see?
- 15:36Speaker 4: Yeah. There was no other choice.
- 15:38Speaker 3: Even her storms do good.
- 15:39Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 15:40Speaker 4: I mean, exactly. Speaking of storms, you know, we always
- 15:43Speaker 4: think about the big storms, preparing for the big storms,
- 15:46Speaker 4: when really it's Our usual afternoon thunderstorms that can be
- 15:49Speaker 4: just as dangerous in this next story is a perfect
- 15:52Speaker 4: case in point. Although it's tragic, help is pouring in
- 15:56Speaker 4: for the family of a man killed in a lightning
- 15:58Speaker 4: strike in Pinellas County. Steven Matheson of Utah was jet
- 16:03Speaker 4: skiing on Saturday. Fort DeSoto when he was hit by lightning.
- 16:08Speaker 4: He leaves behind a wife and four kids and a
- 16:11Speaker 4: GoFundMe page was set up to help with the cost
- 16:13Speaker 4: of getting his body back home. The woman who started
- 16:17Speaker 4: the page says Matheson was a wonderful man, devoted husband
- 16:20Speaker 4: and loving father, and his family was his greatest joy.
- 16:23Speaker 4: So far, over 400 people have donated over $ 60, 000.
- 16:26Speaker 6: Wow.
- 16:27Speaker 4: Man. Again, you're just out there enjoying your Saturday afternoon
- 16:32Speaker 4: jet skiing.
- 16:33Speaker 3: Where are they from?
- 16:34Speaker 4: They're from Utah.
- 16:35Speaker 9: Oh, wow.
- 16:36Speaker 3: So no real idea about that kind of thing. Man,
- 16:38Speaker 3: when you come to Florida, you really got to acclimate
- 16:40Speaker 3: yourself to what happens in this area. Any Florida you
- 16:43Speaker 3: would have known, you got to get off the water
- 16:44Speaker 3: at that point, right? When you see those storms coming in,
- 16:46Speaker 3: one flash, like everybody knows that.
- 16:49Speaker 4: Because they can flash so far from the storm. If
- 16:52Speaker 4: you get a lightning strike, was it 10 miles outside
- 16:54Speaker 4: of the center of the storm?
- 16:56Speaker 5: And even if you are from here, you see storms coming,
- 16:58Speaker 5: you're like, all right, let's move.
- 17:02Speaker 3: But you are already in a dangerous zone.
- 17:04Speaker 4: Yeah, you really are. It's just something you don't want
- 17:07Speaker 4: to mess with. All right. The Florida Department of Transportation
- 17:10Speaker 4: is giving local law enforcement 30 days to remove its
- 17:13Speaker 4: license plate reading flock cameras because of abuse and privacy concerns.
- 17:18Speaker 4: Speaking in Jacksonville, Governor Ron DeSantis said using cameras on
- 17:21Speaker 4: toll roads or for catching criminals is one thing, but
- 17:25Speaker 4: they can be abused.
- 17:27Speaker 3: Where is this data going?
- 17:29Speaker 12: How much data is the company's doing?
- 17:32Speaker 13: They claim that the companies aren't going to misuse it,
- 17:34Speaker 13: but no one's watching that.
- 17:36Speaker 4: FDOT says it will also not issue any new permits
- 17:39Speaker 4: for the flock cameras. And to that end, flock cameras
- 17:42Speaker 4: are being turned off in Brevard County. Sheriff Wayne Ivey
- 17:44Speaker 4: announced yesterday he's pausing use of the license plate readers
- 17:48Speaker 4: due to privacy concerns. The county has 19 flock cameras,
- 17:52Speaker 4: and he says there's no doubt they're an amazing tool
- 17:55Speaker 4: for law enforcement. Ivy adds, though, there's also no doubt
- 17:58Speaker 4: the data the cameras collect are a major concern for citizens, right?
- 18:03Speaker 4: It's not that we don't want to be a tool
- 18:05Speaker 4: to help law enforcement. We just want to know who
- 18:07Speaker 4: the hell is collecting this stuff. Where are you keeping it?
- 18:09Speaker 4: Who has access to it?
- 18:10Speaker 3: Who's protecting it?
- 18:11Speaker 4: Who's protecting it?
- 18:12Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
- 18:13Speaker 4: Meanwhile, Titusville police announced yesterday they're also suspending the use
- 18:17Speaker 4: of flock cameras. Interim Police Chief Tyler Wright says this
- 18:20Speaker 4: will allow TPD to take a deeper look at the program. And,
- 18:23Speaker 4: of course, we talked about this yesterday, Jack. You had
- 18:26Speaker 4: referenced the Oviedo City Council voting yesterday to immediately remove
- 18:30Speaker 4: the license plate readers. The city installed eight cameras about
- 18:34Speaker 4: six months ago, and they could start coming down as
- 18:36Speaker 4: soon as today. Oviedo? Yes, Oviedo.
- 18:39Speaker 3: Cameras are already down.
- 18:40Speaker 7: Oh, wow.
- 18:40Speaker 4: There you go.
- 18:41Speaker 5: The mayor that we talked to on the show, you know,
- 18:44Speaker 5: she posted online that, Cameras are down and then they're
- 18:48Speaker 5: saying the polls might take a little while, but they're
- 18:50Speaker 5: coming down to you.
- 18:51Speaker 7: You're right.
- 18:51Speaker 4: Mayor Megan Sladek says this is as solid a stand
- 18:54Speaker 4: against flock as the city can take.
- 18:57Speaker 3: It says, Oh, I'm sorry. No, it says, uh, the
- 19:00Speaker 3: cost of the flock cameras is anywhere, uh, through about
- 19:03Speaker 3: 650 bucks a unit. And it costs about 2,500 to
- 19:06Speaker 3: $ 3, 000 per camera per year to operate.
- 19:09Speaker 4: But, you know, again, that's all well and good. Who's
- 19:12Speaker 4: paying for it.
- 19:12Speaker 7: Right.
- 19:12Speaker 5: Right. You know, at, Ultimately, we are. There's 1,000 of
- 19:17Speaker 5: them in Orlando, right? You said that yesterday, like 1,000
- 19:19Speaker 5: of them?
- 19:20Speaker 4: At least, yeah.
- 19:21Speaker 3: You think about that, 1,000 times 3,000. That's the yearly
- 19:24Speaker 3: fee of having them. That's taxpayer cost.
- 19:28Speaker 4: And, you know, yeah, we shouldn't have to find out
- 19:30Speaker 4: on social media or wherever that these things are being
- 19:33Speaker 4: put out. All right, gas prices are creeping up ahead
- 19:35Speaker 4: of Labor Day weekend. AAA reports the state averages $ 3. 94
- 19:39Speaker 4: for a gallon of regular unleaded That's up 7 cents
- 19:44Speaker 4: from yesterday and a dime from this time last week.
- 19:47Speaker 4: The average in Orlando is $ 3.
- 19:49Speaker 7: 99.
- 19:40Speaker 6: All right.
- 19:40Speaker 4: We had talked about this couple before. Turns out to
- 19:42Speaker 4: be so much worse than we thought. A couple is
- 20:00Speaker 4: under arrest in Orange County accused of confining four children
- 20:03Speaker 4: in a semi-truck. Remember that?
- 20:05Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 20:06Speaker 3: We made fun of the lady's mugshot.
- 20:08Speaker 4: Yeah, because she looked like Krusty the Clown. After Krusty
- 20:10Speaker 4: the Clown had been run over, backed it up, and
- 20:13Speaker 4: then ran over it again.
- 20:14Speaker 3: Yeah, if Krusty banged the predator.
- 20:17Speaker 4: Yeah, in case you're watching on our fourth box, we apologize,
- 20:20Speaker 4: but Jack has her mugshot up. sexually abusing and neglecting
- 20:24Speaker 4: them for years. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeyer announced the
- 20:27Speaker 4: arrest today, calling it one of the most horrific cases
- 20:31Speaker 4: his team has worked on. He says the four children,
- 20:34Speaker 4: two boys and two girls, ages 5, 6, and 9,
- 20:37Speaker 4: were confined to the cab of the truck, one bunk bed,
- 20:40Speaker 4: for six years and denied basic needs like food, schooling,
- 20:44Speaker 4: and medical care. Osceola County Sheriff Christopher Blackman says the
- 20:47Speaker 4: offenders exploited the children as they traveled up and down
- 20:51Speaker 4: the state.
- 20:52Speaker 13: Trapped in the back of a semi-tractor cab for months
- 20:55Speaker 13: and months and months, being used as a sex toy
- 20:58Speaker 13: for sick people. I hope and pray to God everybody
- 21:00Speaker 13: involved in this, the pimps that were in there using
- 21:02Speaker 13: the kids, selling the kids, and the Johns that were
- 21:04Speaker 13: taking advantage of these children, I hope to God we
- 21:05Speaker 13: find every one of them.
- 21:07Speaker 4: Like, I don't even want to give you the details
- 21:08Speaker 4: of some of this.
- 21:09Speaker 3: Yeah, I would not.
- 21:11Speaker 4: You do not want to know.
- 21:12Speaker 5: Six years. Six years, these four children. This is an
- 21:15Speaker 5: execution scenario, right?
- 21:15Speaker 3: Without a doubt. Yeah, this is an execution scenario.
- 21:19Speaker 4: Without a doubt. One of the children suffered from untreated burns. Okay, plural.
- 21:26Speaker 4: And another child was diagnosed with a sexually transmitted infection.
- 21:30Speaker 6: Sweet.
- 21:31Speaker 4: Uthmeyer says Florida has a zero tolerance for people who
- 21:35Speaker 4: harm children and will seek... The death penalty, if able.
- 21:39Speaker 4: This is one of those cases that I think was
- 21:41Speaker 4: just handmade for the death penalty. Six years, they said
- 21:44Speaker 4: those children denied education, medical care. They suffered physical disfigurements
- 21:50Speaker 4: because they didn't get any treatment for anything.
- 21:51Speaker 6: Right, right, right, right.
- 21:52Speaker 3: Yeah, let's just go ahead and start the one off
- 21:54Speaker 3: with those guys right there.
- 21:55Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, this next story, actually, yeah. The state of
- 21:58Speaker 4: Florida is set to carry out another execution today. 75-year-old
- 22:03Speaker 4: Harold Gene Lucas. Florida's longest serving inmate and actually, as
- 22:07Speaker 4: it turns out, the longest serving death row inmate around
- 22:10Speaker 4: the country at the moment. Over 50 years he's been
- 22:13Speaker 4: on death row is scheduled to be put to death
- 22:15Speaker 4: by lethal injection. He was sentenced to die back in
- 22:19Speaker 4: 1977 after being convicted of first degree murder and two
- 22:23Speaker 4: counts of attempted murder. Prosecutors say he shot and killed.
- 22:26Speaker 4: his teenage girlfriend, and also shot two of her friends.
- 22:29Speaker 4: If the execution moves forward, it would be the 14th
- 22:32Speaker 4: in Florida this year, and it's one of three planned
- 22:36Speaker 4: for the month of September. All right, here we go again.
- 22:39Speaker 4: There are growing rumors. Governor DeSantis is about to suspend
- 22:44Speaker 4: Orange Osceola State Attorney Monique Worrell again.
- 22:47Speaker 3: Oh, she had a banger of a press conference today.
- 22:50Speaker 4: Yes, she did. He did so in 2023, citing her, quote,
- 22:55Speaker 4: soft on crime policies, end quote. But she was reelected
- 22:59Speaker 4: in 2024.
- 23:00Speaker 3: Overwhelmingly. Yes, she was.
- 23:02Speaker 4: And responding in Orlando today, she said that was unjust.
- 23:06Speaker 4: And this is, too.
- 23:07Speaker 10: I was never removed from office because I stopped doing
- 23:10Speaker 10: my job, but because of politically motivated decisions that were
- 23:14Speaker 10: not based in fact.
- 23:16Speaker 4: Yeah, so Worrell says she received a phone call Monday
- 23:20Speaker 4: night warning her that her second suspension was imminent.
- 23:24Speaker 9: Oh, wow.
- 23:26Speaker 4: Oh, man, it's getting dirty, right?
- 23:28Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 23:28Speaker 3: Well, especially the irony of it all, considering the Hope
- 23:31Speaker 3: Florida thing.
- 23:31Speaker 5: Yeah, and she came public with also the stats for
- 23:36Speaker 5: her office, over 80% conviction rates on all these different things,
- 23:40Speaker 5: up to 100 on certain crimes. Yeah, even one of
- 23:42Speaker 5: the screwiest dudes out there said that the Hope Florida
- 23:44Speaker 5: thing stunk to high heaven.
- 23:45Speaker 3: Did you see Matt Gaetz's? And his his statement, Matt
- 23:48Speaker 3: Gates came out and called it stinky. Matt Gates said
- 23:51Speaker 3: it was straight up theft.
- 23:53Speaker 7: Wow.
- 23:53Speaker 5: Basically said straight up that called for the investigation and prosecution.
- 23:57Speaker 4: Well, it's funny you mentioned that because Worrell did hint
- 24:00Speaker 4: that her rumor rumored removal may be linked to the
- 24:04Speaker 4: possible investigation of the Hope Florida scandal. And of course,
- 24:07Speaker 4: you've got. Angie Nixon and David Jolly saying, listen, reopen
- 24:10Speaker 4: the investigation.
- 24:11Speaker 3: They're running on it. Jolly's running on it.
- 24:13Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. Well, when asked if that was true, that
- 24:15Speaker 4: Worrell received a phone call Monday night warning her, James
- 24:19Speaker 4: Uthmeyer said, you know, the governor didn't relay that information
- 24:24Speaker 4: to me. I'm really, I don't.
- 24:25Speaker 3: I have no clue.
- 24:26Speaker 8: You guys never chat.
- 24:28Speaker 6: Do you?
- 24:29Speaker 4: I guess not. Yeah. Former chief of staff says what?
- 24:32Speaker 7: Okay.
- 24:33Speaker 4: An ex-NFL star is facing a slew of charges in
- 24:36Speaker 4: central Florida. Wide receiver Damon Patterson was arrested in Daytona
- 24:41Speaker 4: Beach on August 22nd. Now, he played for the Pittsburgh Steelers,
- 24:44Speaker 4: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New England Patriots. Charges include
- 24:48Speaker 4: grand theft of a motor vehicle, aggravated assault with a
- 24:52Speaker 4: deadly weapon, criminal mischief, and armed burglary of a dwelling.
- 24:57Speaker 4: Might I suggest a different hobby?
- 24:59Speaker 3: Exactly. While being an NFL player?
- 25:01Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 25:01Speaker 4: I mean, authorities didn't go into detail about the case
- 25:04Speaker 4: and investigation is ongoing, but Come on. That's weird.
- 25:09Speaker 3: There's a number of guys that started running with the
- 25:11Speaker 3: people they were, you know, after they got famous in
- 25:13Speaker 3: the NFL, started playing, making some money. I mean, the
- 25:16Speaker 3: guy from Florida, Aaron... The guy, yeah, Aaron, was it Hernandez? Yeah,
- 25:22Speaker 3: Aaron Hernandez. That's just one. I mean, these guys get
- 25:26Speaker 3: real big and they go back to that group of
- 25:28Speaker 3: people they grew up with and they're all kind of
- 25:29Speaker 3: thugged out or whatever, just doing the same stuff they
- 25:31Speaker 3: did when they were in high school and college and
- 25:33Speaker 3: kind of hooked back up to them, trying to gain
- 25:35Speaker 3: respect from them or something. It's kind of wild.
- 25:37Speaker 4: It's very wild.
- 25:37Speaker 3: There have been a number of cases where people just
- 25:39Speaker 3: go back in that vibe. I don't get that.
- 25:41Speaker 4: I don't either. Come on.
- 25:42Speaker 3: CTE, baby.
- 25:43Speaker 4: I was going to say, we definitely know with Aaron Hernandez,
- 25:45Speaker 4: that was a big part of his, right?
- 25:47Speaker 3: Well, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, Aaron had some
- 25:50Speaker 3: sketchy behavior going all the way back to college. Yeah, yeah.
- 25:54Speaker 4: All right. Two Florida cities are among the top three
- 25:56Speaker 4: most fun in America. You know it. Come on. What
- 26:00Speaker 4: would be the number one most fun city in Florida?
- 26:03Speaker 3: I mean, it's Orlando.
- 26:04Speaker 8: Of course.
- 26:04Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
- 26:05Speaker 5: I mean, come on.
- 26:05Speaker 4: Yeah. Orlando locked down the number two spot, trailing only
- 26:09Speaker 4: Las Vegas. Well, Miami captured third place nationwide.
- 26:14Speaker 6: Oh, hell yeah.
- 26:14Speaker 3: It's got to be there.
- 26:16Speaker 5: I saw what's happening to Miami in that GTA 6 trailer.
- 26:19Speaker 3: That's right. It's wild down there, folks. It is wild.
- 26:25Speaker 4: The WalletHub rankings measured over 40 indicators of entertainment, nightlife,
- 26:30Speaker 4: and affordability. Fort Lauderdale and Tampa also made the list,
- 26:34Speaker 4: ranking 15th and 16th, respectively. And, of course, that means Orlando, Miami,
- 26:39Speaker 4: and Tampa rank as the top three best cities to
- 26:42Speaker 4: retire in the United States.
- 26:44Speaker 3: Saw that today as well, yeah.
- 26:46Speaker 4: The WalletHub study evaluated over 180 municipalities using 45 key metrics,
- 26:51Speaker 4: including cost of living, low tax burdens, and health care quality.
- 26:55Speaker 4: Other Florida areas scored high as well, with Fort Lauderdale
- 26:58Speaker 4: ranking 8th. And Pembroke Pines ranking 22nd overall. But you
- 27:03Speaker 4: know the state I heard today that retirees are flocking
- 27:06Speaker 4: to if it's not Florida?
- 27:07Speaker 8: Arizona.
- 27:11Speaker 4: You will never guess this because this is like, what?
- 27:13Speaker 7: Idaho.
- 27:13Speaker 6: Utah.
- 27:14Speaker 8: Utah.
- 27:15Speaker 3: Delaware. Delaware, really?
- 27:17Speaker 4: Delaware.
- 27:18Speaker 3: Wow, really?
- 27:18Speaker 4: Isn't that crazy? Except come January, right?
- 27:20Speaker 3: Yeah, I was going to say.
- 27:21Speaker 4: Then Florida's going to be like, how do you like
- 27:23Speaker 4: me now?
- 27:24Speaker 3: Come April.
- 27:25Speaker 8: Exactly.
- 27:26Speaker 3: I mean, it's still frozen solid in April. That's why
- 27:27Speaker 3: Code Black moved out of Colorado, walked out of his
- 27:30Speaker 3: house in February, and he opened his doors and it
- 27:32Speaker 3: was just snow. And his wife said, get me the
- 27:35Speaker 3: blank out of here.
- 27:35Speaker 4: We're leaving. They already sold their house a month after that.
- 27:38Speaker 4: We're getting out of here. Plus, they had a destiny
- 27:41Speaker 4: with friendship.
- 27:42Speaker 3: Yeah, sure they did.
- 27:43Speaker 14: Aww.
- 27:43Speaker 9: Aww.
- 27:46Speaker 4: And then finally, a man is once again behind bars
- 27:50Speaker 4: in California. It's not his first offense. You want to
- 27:53Speaker 4: take a guess at what he likes to do? So
- 27:56Speaker 4: he gets hammered?
- 27:59Speaker 3: Is he just mentally ill and he just likes to
- 28:02Speaker 3: do this?
- 28:03Speaker 4: Sniffing butts.
- 28:04Speaker 5: He likes to sniff butts. He likes to sneak up
- 28:08Speaker 5: on people and do that? They call that doggy style.
- 28:13Speaker 7: I will not. React to that.
- 28:15Speaker 5: I will not.
- 28:18Speaker 4: Khalees Crowder, who, by the way, checked out his mugshot.
- 28:21Speaker 4: He's the closest I've ever seen to truly having Shrek ears.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 28:25Speaker 4: I mean, like, truly.
- 28:26Speaker 3: He's not hearing the butts, apparently. Maybe that's what it is.
- 28:29Speaker 3: His ears are so big his smell has been muted.
- 28:32Speaker 4: It's just, have you ever seen earlobes like a good
- 28:35Speaker 4: half inch to an inch off the side of your head?
- 28:37Speaker 5: Yeah, really?
- 28:38Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I'm literally.
- 28:40Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 28:40Speaker 4: Yeah, you need to check out. Jack is, so check
- 28:43Speaker 4: it out. He's putting it on the fourth box right there.
- 28:45Speaker 4: So when you see this dude's ears, tell me you
- 28:48Speaker 4: don't expect him to be able to pull out small candles.
- 28:51Speaker 3: Oh, my goodness. Yeah, that guy can't live within 20
- 28:54Speaker 3: miles of a data center.
- 28:55Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 28:58Speaker 3: Well, Khalees Crowder. That guy can't look up. His ears
- 29:00Speaker 3: will hold water. That guy could catch rain with those things. Oh,
- 29:07Speaker 3: it looks like two teacups glued to his face.
- 29:09Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
- 29:10Speaker 3: Look at that.
- 29:11Speaker 4: Khalees Crowder was arrested by Glendale police for allegedly sniffing
- 29:15Speaker 4: someone's tail end at a Marshall's department store.
- 29:20Speaker 3: Actually, he gets down.
- 29:22Speaker 5: There's camera footage of him squatting down behind the person
- 29:26Speaker 5: and then sneaking.
- 29:27Speaker 3: Up and sniffing their butt.
- 29:31Speaker 4: See, it's not always a Florida man story.
- 29:33Speaker 5: I don't even know how to react to that.
- 29:35Speaker 4: This is far from his first offense. The 39 year old.
- 29:40Speaker 4: registered sex offender has a record.
- 29:42Speaker 3: He's a serial sniffer?
- 29:44Speaker 4: Serial sniffer for similar offenses in Burbank and Glendale.
- 29:48Speaker 3: Okay, can I ask a question? Is it only women
- 29:50Speaker 3: or does he do it to everybody?
- 29:51Speaker 4: I don't know, but check out this video.
- 29:53Speaker 3: Women is the only one in this video.
- 29:54Speaker 8: Check it out.
- 29:55Speaker 4: He's creeping up behind. You're going to see his face
- 29:57Speaker 4: over there on the left like, you don't see me.
- 29:59Speaker 5: Okay, hold on.
- 29:59Speaker 4: Play it, Jay. You don't see me.
- 30:00Speaker 15: It keeps freezing.
- 30:01Speaker 5: Oh, man.
- 30:02Speaker 3: Oh, I want to see this guy completely creeped. This
- 30:05Speaker 3: is really, you shouldn't be encouraging this. We shouldn't even
- 30:09Speaker 3: be watching this, right? It literally says in giant letters
- 30:12Speaker 3: right below it, sex offender. And we're gawking at this
- 30:15Speaker 3: like it's a new zoo edition.
- 30:17Speaker 4: But you see him on his hands and knees behind her?
- 30:19Speaker 3: Is she the victim?
- 30:21Speaker 4: She is the victim.
- 30:22Speaker 16: Oh, man.
- 30:22Speaker 4: She's one of them. One of them, yeah.
- 30:23Speaker 5: She works there.
- 30:24Speaker 4: Well, she's at like a bookstore, so she's like maybe
- 30:27Speaker 4: on her break from her job, and she's just checking.
- 30:30Speaker 4: I can't see the products. Maybe she's at a grocery store.
- 30:32Speaker 3: That's a bookstore.
- 30:33Speaker 5: You can see him kneeling down behind her.
- 30:35Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. He's getting ready to go.
- 30:37Speaker 3: Oh, dude, so he's getting in there.
- 30:43Speaker 4: He was arrested in 2023 for peeping into a family's
- 30:47Speaker 4: home in Glendale.
- 30:48Speaker 9: Uh-huh.
- 30:48Speaker 4: He's now being held without bail.
- 30:51Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. That guy's on the, yeah.
- 30:54Speaker 4: Yeah, he's definitely.
- 30:55Speaker 3: But, you know, that's a step, right? There's got to
- 30:56Speaker 3: be a step to doing something more serious, right?
- 30:59Speaker 6: I mean.
- 31:00Speaker 3: Oh, my God, when you look at that guy's ears.
- 31:01Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying.
- 31:02Speaker 3: He's a Ferengi.
- 31:05Speaker 5: I almost feel bad for him. He cannot sleep on
- 31:08Speaker 5: his side. That guy would suck him up to the bed.
- 31:15Speaker 4: When you, like, the video Jack just, I mean, it
- 31:18Speaker 4: was broad daylight. He wasn't, like, stuck in, like, some
- 31:22Speaker 4: back aisles where you couldn't see him. I mean, he
- 31:24Speaker 4: was right out there in the open creeping up.
- 31:27Speaker 5: Right.
- 31:27Speaker 4: Like he's a Rottweiler.
- 31:28Speaker 3: And here's the thing, really matched himself well wearing a
- 31:32Speaker 3: bright-ass yellow shirt.
- 31:33Speaker 4: Right, exactly. You don't see me.
- 31:36Speaker 5: Buttocks sniffing incidents.
- 31:38Speaker 4: Wouldn't you want to write that headline?
- 31:42Speaker 6: Jeez.
- 31:44Speaker 3: Horrifying.
- 31:45Speaker 4: Buttocks sniffing.
- 31:46Speaker 6: There he is.
- 31:47Speaker 3: Oh, it's running now.
- 31:48Speaker 8: Yep.
- 31:48Speaker 5: Does she even know it?
- 31:50Speaker 4: No, she's just going through the book. And look, he's
- 31:52Speaker 4: creeping up behind us. Oh, he already did it.
- 31:54Speaker 8: Yeah, see?
- 31:55Speaker 4: And now he's doing it again.
- 31:56Speaker 5: Dude.
- 31:59Speaker 3: In his Wu-Tang shirt. In his Wu-Tang shirt.
- 32:04Speaker 4: And that concludes your JCS News.
- 32:09Speaker 3: All right, 407, didn't see that coming. 407-916-2041, Texas. That's
- 32:13Speaker 3: what she said. 77031, back in one sec with more
- 32:16Speaker 3: of the Jim Colbert Show.
- 32:17Speaker 15: Let me first start by saying I am not a
- 32:20Speaker 15: butt sniffer.
- 32:20Speaker 6: All right, let me get that out there.
- 32:21Speaker 7: Okay.
- 32:22Speaker 3: But they said that video, it was 945.
- 32:25Speaker 7: In the morning.
- 32:26Speaker 5: This guy's going around at 945 in the morning sniffing people's.
- 32:30Speaker 9: Butts, dude?
- 32:31Speaker 6: Like, I don't know what a good time is to
- 32:33Speaker 6: crawl around sniffing butts, but I would assume it's not
- 32:35Speaker 6: 945 in the morning.
- 32:37Speaker 3: He should go to jail just for that.
- 32:39Speaker 4: Well, is that Pacific time?
- 32:41Speaker 5: The next talk, well, for him, it's still 945. However,
- 32:47Speaker 5: evil I hear raises a good point.
- 32:49Speaker 8: Oh, man, that guy could.
- 32:51Speaker 10: Do that to me.
- 32:51Speaker 5: I'd have a fart waiting.
- 32:54Speaker 6: After that.
- 32:55Speaker 10: I don't see where the crime is unless he's doing
- 32:59Speaker 10: like the old books, scratch and sniff. But he didn't
- 33:03Speaker 10: scratch nobody first. So he's sniffing butts. That's a weird kink.
- 33:10Speaker 10: I don't see a crime.
- 33:11Speaker 3: He's not coming in if he doesn't touch him. There's
- 33:14Speaker 3: two or three people who said that on the texting service.
- 33:16Speaker 3: One was a woman.
- 33:17Speaker 5: One more.
- 33:21Speaker 6: Hey, guys. So is that butt sniffer?
- 33:23Speaker 13: Would that be a kink or a fetish?
- 33:26Speaker 8: Oh. Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 33:27Speaker 7: We've gone over this.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Which one would it be, though?
- 33:30Speaker 3: Yeah, I do not know the answer to that.
- 33:31Speaker 5: Welcome back.
- 33:32Speaker 3: I'm Jim. Devin Jacker here as well.
- 33:33Speaker 4: It's got to be a fetish.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Because.
- 33:38Speaker 4: He'd have to sniff the butt. I can't even. I
- 33:43Speaker 4: think it's a kink. You think it's a kink?
- 33:45Speaker 3: I don't know. I forget which one was which. We're
- 33:50Speaker 3: expecting you to remember, Jack. We did determine they're different, though, right?
- 33:53Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're different. We just can't remember how.
- 33:57Speaker 3: Multiple people on the texting service during the break are like, look,
- 33:59Speaker 3: where's the crime here? I'm like, okay, well, just back
- 34:02Speaker 3: your daughter up there.
- 34:04Speaker 4: And let her take a whiff.
- 34:05Speaker 5: Or yourself.
- 34:06Speaker 3: I mean, you turn around, let your husband, you know,
- 34:08Speaker 3: just stand there while a guy sniffs your butt. I mean,
- 34:10Speaker 3: just go ahead. It's fine. And to be honest with you,
- 34:12Speaker 3: what is the crime? I mean, what is the actual
- 34:15Speaker 3: crime here? I mean, is it a sexual crime? He
- 34:20Speaker 3: is a sex offender, right? And this has happened to
- 34:23Speaker 3: him before, so I don't know if that's where he
- 34:24Speaker 3: got his sex offender moniker.
- 34:28Speaker 4: Well, he was also caught peeping into a family's home.
- 34:31Speaker 3: Okay, that's definitely a crime.
- 34:33Speaker 4: All of it sounds like a crime because it all
- 34:35Speaker 4: sounds like an escalation.
- 34:36Speaker 3: Because here's what I'm telling you, right? So if I
- 34:39Speaker 3: did this to you, right, I would get fired from
- 34:43Speaker 3: this company, would I not?
- 34:44Speaker 4: Well, I don't know. Let's ask the man who's about
- 34:46Speaker 4: to play your music.
- 34:47Speaker 3: There's no question that if I went around here and
- 34:50Speaker 3: I started snorting booties in this building, that I'm going
- 34:53Speaker 3: to get blown out. Now, that still does not make
- 34:56Speaker 3: this a crime.
- 34:56Speaker 4: You could get blown out if someone like Evil Eye
- 34:59Speaker 4: is ready for you.
- 35:00Speaker 3: Yeah, it still doesn't make it a crime according to them.
- 35:04Speaker 3: But if I did this in public in front of
- 35:06Speaker 3: a cop, I'm going to get arrested immediately. And I
- 35:08Speaker 3: guess we'll find out what the crime is at that point.
- 35:10Speaker 4: Well, I mean, we do have several LEOs that have listened,
- 35:14Speaker 4: law enforcement officers, so they can text us at 77031
- 35:18Speaker 4: or give us a talk back. I would imagine it's, again,
- 35:21Speaker 4: it's encroaching on your body for their sexual picadillos.
- 35:25Speaker 5: I mean, because his arrest was for parole violation. OK,
- 35:30Speaker 5: so I'm still not seeing what the charge is specifically for.
- 35:34Speaker 3: But to violate your parole, you have to commit a crime.
- 35:37Speaker 8: Right?
- 35:37Speaker 10: Yes.
- 35:38Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to violate. The violation of your parole
- 35:41Speaker 3: is a crime. So you've done something to violate your parole.
- 35:43Speaker 3: And obviously, if it's 945 in the morning, it isn't
- 35:46Speaker 3: staying out too late.
- 35:47Speaker 4: Somebody texted us at 77031. It's not a kink.
- 35:53Speaker 3: It's a stink.
- 35:57Speaker 5: Can I ask a question? Are we sure? I don't
- 36:00Speaker 5: even want to read it. These people out there listening,
- 36:03Speaker 5: they write stuff.
- 36:03Speaker 4: No, they've had some experiences, man.
- 36:06Speaker 7: No, what?
- 36:08Speaker 4: Yes, back when I used to frequent the clubs downtown Orlando,
- 36:11Speaker 4: I was coming out of the bathroom of a nightclub
- 36:13Speaker 4: and the guy got down on the ground and licked
- 36:15Speaker 4: the bottom of my shoe. Give him butts instead. Okay,
- 36:25Speaker 4: all kinks are fetishes, but all fetishes are not kinks.
- 36:29Speaker 4: This is too confusing for me.
- 36:32Speaker 5: Who thought that sniffing booties would be so complicated? You
- 36:36Speaker 5: think you just do it and then move on.
- 36:38Speaker 4: I just wanted it for a kicker.
- 36:39Speaker 5: This guy, Crowder, has accumulated more than 40 arrests throughout
- 36:43Speaker 5: his life.
- 36:44Speaker 6: Oh, my goodness.
- 36:44Speaker 4: Damn, and he's only 39.
- 36:45Speaker 5: For offenses related to stalking, peeping, prowling, and public lewdness.
- 36:51Speaker 3: And you'd think he knows what it smells like by now.
- 36:53Speaker 4: Can't get enough.
- 37:01Speaker 3: Is he looking for one to break the mold?
- 37:05Speaker 4: Is there a certain bouquet he's after?
- 37:07Speaker 3: Is he looking to go, hmm, white linen.
- 37:10Speaker 7: Exactly.
- 37:11Speaker 4: This pretty bouquet.
- 37:12Speaker 3: Is that eucalyptus? I know it.
- 37:14Speaker 4: It smells like it's been aged in an oak barrel.
- 37:16Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 37:17Speaker 3: He's looking for notes. Notes of pizza and margaritas.
- 37:23Speaker 5: Taco Bell.
- 37:27Speaker 3: I'm picking up some Golden Corral.
- 37:31Speaker 4: Look at him. Look at him creeping on the floor behind.
- 37:34Speaker 5: Look at him, dude. That is such a monster move.
- 37:37Speaker 5: God almighty.
- 37:37Speaker 4: And he's right in the middle of the story. He's
- 37:40Speaker 4: like not even trying to be shy about it.
- 37:42Speaker 3: Can I ask you something?
- 37:43Speaker 5: Shouldn't they blur her face? They should blur her face.
- 37:47Speaker 5: They should not put that on her. That poor girl's
- 37:49Speaker 5: doing nothing.
- 37:50Speaker 3: And now she's got to go through life known as
- 37:52Speaker 3: the person that got her booty sniffed.
- 37:54Speaker 5: Check this one out. They should have done that. Why
- 37:57Speaker 5: didn't they blur her face? That is completely unnecessary.
- 38:02Speaker 4: Oh, but he looks like when he got arrested, someone
- 38:04Speaker 4: pulled him by his ears.
- 38:05Speaker 3: Oh, no, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 38:07Speaker 4: Like you said, a couple of teacups glued to the
- 38:09Speaker 4: side of his head.
- 38:09Speaker 5: My dude got thumped a lot in high school and
- 38:12Speaker 5: middle school. Look at that face. Yeah, no, look at it.
- 38:15Speaker 4: That slack lower lip, like, going in for the kill.
- 38:18Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 38:19Speaker 4: Serial butt sniffer. Would you want that to be your jailhouse?
- 38:24Speaker 2: Oh, no.
- 38:25Speaker 6: No, no, no.
- 38:25Speaker 3: I got to tell you. There's no secret. Oh, they're
- 38:27Speaker 3: going to get really like, oh, you like to sniff butts.
- 38:29Speaker 5: That's going to be the opening line when that dude
- 38:32Speaker 5: walks into the person like, oh, you like to sniff butts.
- 38:35Speaker 5: This is the same day. He walked over to that woman.
- 38:38Speaker 5: He went from one way to the other.
- 38:39Speaker 3: Yeah, dude.
- 38:40Speaker 9: Damn.
- 38:40Speaker 3: He was in the same shot.
- 38:41Speaker 4: Yeah. He's comparing. Comparing notes.
- 38:46Speaker 10: God.
- 38:48Speaker 3: It's like magical dining for booties.
- 38:50Speaker 8: Damn.
- 38:56Speaker 3: God, dog, I've never seen anything like that. I'm a
- 39:00Speaker 3: bit flabbergasted, and I don't mean to be silent all
- 39:03Speaker 3: the time, although it's probably a big positive.
- 39:04Speaker 5: Sometimes those are deadly. I've not seen anything like this.
- 39:10Speaker 5: This is completely baffling. Here's his monk job. That dude
- 39:14Speaker 5: from Star Trek? That's a Ferengi. It's a Ferengi? That's
- 39:20Speaker 5: the reference.
- 39:20Speaker 12: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 39:22Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
- 39:23Speaker 3: That guy can hear himself getting older.
- 39:24Speaker 4: Holy ass.
- 39:27Speaker 5: What a mess.
- 39:28Speaker 4: Yeah. Holy ass.
- 39:30Speaker 5: You're right. Wow, man. Somebody said Carl Darrell. Call Darrell Payne.
- 39:33Speaker 5: He can fix it. All right.
- 39:37Speaker 7: 407-916-1041.
- 39:37Speaker 5: Darrell, I've got a problem. You know, my boy is
- 39:40Speaker 5: just sniffing booties. Well, we can get your dog.
- 39:42Speaker 9: Fine.
- 39:42Speaker 3: No, it's not my dog. Not a dog issue.
- 39:45Speaker 7: All right.
- 39:46Speaker 3: Back in a second with What'd You Do That's New.
- 39:53Speaker 15: What's going on Colbert and Company, it's Concrete Mike. Man,
- 39:56Speaker 15: you gotta love these dumbass county inspectors that come out
- 40:00Speaker 15: to a job during a thunderstorm, didn't want to fail
- 40:03Speaker 15: your inspection because there's water and some foundation puddings that
- 40:08Speaker 15: 30 minutes later was already soaked into the ground and gone.
- 40:12Speaker 15: Now I can't pour my 30 trucks tomorrow like I
- 40:14Speaker 15: wanted to. I like to choke these guys.
- 40:17Speaker 3: Yeah, it's trouble. Yeah, man, when we built our pool
- 40:22Speaker 3: a couple years back at the house we sold out
- 40:24Speaker 3: in Geneva, I just got a brief glimpse of what
- 40:26Speaker 3: it's like to deal with counties who have to come
- 40:29Speaker 3: in and do the inspections of the electrical, of concrete,
- 40:34Speaker 3: of building, of everything like that, every single step. It
- 40:38Speaker 3: was multiple, and it can be very frustrating for people
- 40:40Speaker 3: who want to get jobs done for sure.
- 40:41Speaker 4: Normally is.
- 40:42Speaker 14: Yeah.
- 40:42Speaker 3: Welcome back. I am Jim. There's Deb.
- 40:44Speaker 7: Hello.
- 40:44Speaker 3: Jack is here as well.
- 40:45Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 40:45Speaker 5: Let's do What'd You Do That's New.
- 40:51Speaker 6: What you do, that's new.
- 40:54Speaker 8: What you do, that's new.
- 40:55Speaker 4: Hey!
- 40:56Speaker 8: It's the only new, something new to do.
- 40:58Speaker 4: We're relying on you, telling something new.
- 41:00Speaker 8: About to you.
- 41:00Speaker 7: Bye!
- 41:00Speaker 14: Bye! That's right.
- 41:02Speaker 3: Thanks, Klausman Law. That's K-L-A-U-S-M-A-N-L-A-W.com. Office is right there in

- 41:11Speaker 3: talk to Glenn on Thursday for Colbert Court. Until then,
- 41:14Speaker 3: what you do that's new happens every Tuesday at 4 o'clock.
- 41:16Speaker 3: One of the members of the show will pick something
- 41:18Speaker 3: for the others to watch, read, or listen to. We
- 41:20Speaker 3: will do that, and then we'll reconvene the next Tuesday,
- 41:22Speaker 3: kind of go over it, move on to the next person.
- 41:24Speaker 3: This week, it is the listener's pick, and then I
- 41:26Speaker 3: have something for you afterwards. That's right, and that listener
- 41:30Speaker 3: is Cheryl W., Cheryl W. Cheryl's been listening for a long,
- 41:34Speaker 3: long time to Real Radio. We appreciate that. And she
- 41:37Speaker 3: suggested this. It's called Subway Takes with Kareem Rama.
- 41:43Speaker 5: And he also has another series that she linked that
- 41:47Speaker 5: is called.
- 41:48Speaker 3: Leave the Meter Running.
- 41:50Speaker 5: So Subway Takes, he actually is nominated for an Emmy
- 41:55Speaker 5: for this show. for comedy short. Yes.
- 41:59Speaker 3: And it's interviewing people on the subway with their hot takes.
- 42:05Speaker 6: Right.
- 42:05Speaker 5: It's supposed to get hotter. And then that turned into,
- 42:08Speaker 5: it grew in popularity. Then he started interviewing celebrities on
- 42:12Speaker 5: the subway, on subway takes. And now he has another
- 42:15Speaker 5: show called leave the meter running, which is basically interviewing
- 42:20Speaker 5: cab drivers and, and kind of, and going around with
- 42:23Speaker 5: cab drivers and, You know, talking about them almost like
- 42:26Speaker 5: taxicab confessions.
- 42:28Speaker 3: Remember that from HBO? Yeah, of course.
- 42:29Speaker 5: Way back in the day.
- 42:30Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 42:31Speaker 5: So I found it all very interesting.
- 42:34Speaker 3: I've been watching a lot more of them.
- 42:35Speaker 5: I know we had three short clips that we were
- 42:39Speaker 5: reviewing today, but I've definitely watched a bunch more because
- 42:43Speaker 5: I'm definitely interested in this.
- 42:44Speaker 3: I will tell you, I absolutely love this guy. I
- 42:46Speaker 3: think he's really, really entertaining, really kind of original. He's
- 42:49Speaker 3: not a gotcha kind of guy. More interested in learning
- 42:53Speaker 3: about the people that he's kind of talking to than
- 42:55Speaker 3: really kind of getting any content out of them in
- 42:57Speaker 3: a shocking manner. A lot of people got to do that.
- 43:01Speaker 3: Does it remind you of anyone?
- 43:02Speaker 5: Because Cheryl, when she suggested it, said, this guy reminds
- 43:06Speaker 5: me of someone that she also used to watch on.
- 43:08Speaker 3: TV and like. That does this kind of thing or
- 43:11Speaker 3: just in general? Anthony Bourdain. Oh, yeah, yeah, a little
- 43:13Speaker 3: bit like that. Yeah, for sure, yeah.
- 43:14Speaker 5: Because he would always be immersive and interested in the
- 43:18Speaker 5: cultures and finding out and presenting that and just kind
- 43:23Speaker 5: of that vibe he gives off. Yeah, and you get
- 43:25Speaker 5: the feeling also he makes people very comfortable because in
- 43:28Speaker 5: all of the clips, including the one with Ethan Hawke,
- 43:30Speaker 5: who is a legit A-list superstar– actor here in America.
- 43:34Speaker 5: And I found his part of it to be like
- 43:36Speaker 5: the least interesting of both, all three of the clips.
- 43:39Speaker 18: Really?
- 43:39Speaker 3: Although I find him interesting and I think he seems
- 43:42Speaker 3: to be a really good dude. His stories were kind
- 43:44Speaker 3: of interesting, but you know, the other people, I kind
- 43:46Speaker 3: of know a little bit about him. So the other
- 43:48Speaker 3: two people I was more interested in, I mean, the
- 43:49Speaker 3: guy at the very end in the keep the meter running. Yeah.
- 43:52Speaker 3: That guy I found, you know, the one black guy
- 43:55Speaker 3: he was talking to that was from France. I found
- 43:57Speaker 3: very interesting because of his take on American culture and
- 44:00Speaker 3: why he's even here.
- 44:01Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 44:02Speaker 5: You know, it's so funny because they talk about, well, this,
- 44:04Speaker 5: you know, how about this or how about this? Because
- 44:05Speaker 5: now I can get that back in Europe.
- 44:07Speaker 3: I'm here and I'm driving a cab to try to
- 44:09Speaker 3: run into people famous because if you want to do
- 44:11Speaker 3: anything in America, you have to be in the circumference
- 44:14Speaker 3: of famous people, which I found to be quite an
- 44:16Speaker 3: odd take. Yeah. But also the Asian lady he was
- 44:20Speaker 3: talking about when he gets on in the first clip.
- 44:22Speaker 3: you know, going through the hot take of what we
- 44:24Speaker 3: talked about at the beginning of the show of, you know,
- 44:27Speaker 3: I think it should be normalized where people clap when
- 44:29Speaker 3: their plane lands because they're happy they got down. And
- 44:32Speaker 3: then they kind of go into the miracle of flying
- 44:34Speaker 3: in general and how much we take that kind of
- 44:36Speaker 3: for granted. I thought it was very interesting. I thought
- 44:38Speaker 3: the whole thing was interesting. What'd you think?
- 44:42Speaker 4: I was not expecting Ethan Hawke of all things. I
- 44:45Speaker 4: did not peg him. to kick off his interview with
- 44:49Speaker 4: a debate on the Beatles.
- 44:50Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 44:51Speaker 4: That was like the last band I would have expected
- 44:54Speaker 4: him to be as fervent as he was, was, you know,
- 44:59Speaker 4: arguing about who was the better Beatle.
- 45:01Speaker 5: And one of the things is you can't like halfway agree.
- 45:05Speaker 5: It's like you're either 100% agree or disagree.
- 45:08Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
- 45:08Speaker 5: And you got to pick one or the other. He's
- 45:11Speaker 5: interviewed Charlize Theron, and she was kind of, That was
- 45:15Speaker 5: an interesting one.
- 45:17Speaker 3: She's bawdy.
- 45:17Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 45:18Speaker 3: She's a lot more like a broad than she is
- 45:20Speaker 3: like you have her as a lady because you see her.
- 45:23Speaker 3: But she isn't like that, really.
- 45:24Speaker 16: Uh-uh.
- 45:25Speaker 5: You are correct, sir. Matt Damon is on there. Hanaj Manaj.
- 45:31Speaker 5: And I think that's it.
- 45:33Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 45:34Speaker 5: It sounds like a good time, but no, a bunch
- 45:36Speaker 5: of other celebrities that, you know, he's interviewed and it
- 45:39Speaker 5: just keeps growing. He used to work at vice, worked
- 45:42Speaker 5: with the New York times. Matter of fact, he, he,
- 45:45Speaker 5: he introduced vertical video. He was the first one introduced
- 45:48Speaker 5: vertical video for New York times presenting stuff. And I
- 45:52Speaker 5: think it was a tick tock feature that he was posting,
- 45:55Speaker 5: but he's just, you know, A content creator, but also
- 45:59Speaker 5: a media creator. He's got like a network and, you know,
- 46:02Speaker 5: podcast network.
- 46:03Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 46:04Speaker 3: He's a real interesting dude. He really is. And I
- 46:07Speaker 3: just love his style of doing it. Again, he's there
- 46:10Speaker 3: to kind of get the most out of the person
- 46:11Speaker 3: to make the person. And his like his trip with
- 46:13Speaker 3: the Asian guy at the end where they went fishing
- 46:16Speaker 3: and the Asian guy was telling him, you know, they
- 46:18Speaker 3: were out there drawing and he was drawing a picture
- 46:20Speaker 3: of his wife whom he'd lost. And he would go
- 46:22Speaker 3: to this park almost every week. They would go up
- 46:25Speaker 3: there with his wife and they would fish and hang out.
- 46:27Speaker 3: And he only gets up there twice a year now
- 46:29Speaker 3: because he lost his wife and his best friend. And
- 46:32Speaker 3: you can see this guy embrace this dude who's an
- 46:35Speaker 3: Asian cabbie in New York. You can only imagine the
- 46:38Speaker 3: atrocities this guy has seen. And he kind of gave
- 46:40Speaker 3: him an embrace. The guy didn't know what to do
- 46:41Speaker 3: at first. Then he kind of embraced him back.
- 46:43Speaker 5: So what's interesting about that, so the Leave the Meter Running,
- 46:46Speaker 5: which is the cab series where he rides around in
- 46:48Speaker 5: the cabs, what you guys watched was the trailer for
- 46:51Speaker 5: season two. So each episode is like, you know, 30
- 46:54Speaker 5: or more minutes. I watched one of them. Uh, it's
- 46:57Speaker 5: interesting cause you're just following the one guy around and
- 46:59Speaker 5: you get deeper into the story.
- 47:01Speaker 3: He himself, the host, Kareem Rama, his dad was a cabbie.
- 47:05Speaker 6: Oh really?
- 47:06Speaker 5: And that's how he always kind of had that, you know,
- 47:08Speaker 5: connection with cabs and fascination with cab drivers. And, uh,
- 47:12Speaker 5: he was born in Egypt, grew up in Minnesota and,
- 47:15Speaker 5: you know, now is in New York getting notarized for, uh, uh, uh,
- 47:20Speaker 5: you know and famous for this series.
- 47:22Speaker 4: Yeah yeah it's nice to see the metro card live
- 47:24Speaker 4: on as well yeah.
- 47:25Speaker 5: Yeah all right because they don't have metro cards anymore
- 47:28Speaker 5: but they actually use them because they they have these
- 47:30Speaker 5: little uh what they call lavalier mics these that usually
- 47:33Speaker 5: clip onto your.
- 47:34Speaker 3: Clothing is holding a credit card looking thing.
- 47:36Speaker 5: But they hope they put it on a metro card
- 47:38Speaker 5: which is basically a paper credit card that they used
- 47:41Speaker 5: to use for the subway yeah now you just tap
- 47:43Speaker 5: your phone or tap your cards.
- 47:44Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it.
- 47:45Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 47:45Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 47:45Speaker 3: And we were up there. It was, uh, we get
- 47:47Speaker 3: the software just automatically tap and go. It's easier, way
- 47:49Speaker 3: easier because you have to stand in front of those
- 47:50Speaker 3: machines and God only knows how many people can be there. Uh,
- 47:53Speaker 3: cause when we were there last in September, two years ago,
- 47:56Speaker 3: people were still standing in front of those machines, divvying
- 47:58Speaker 3: out those cards and it took forever to get one.
- 48:00Speaker 5: What was cool was, uh, before my last trip, ceiling
- 48:02Speaker 5: turned me on to the fact that if you have
- 48:04Speaker 5: a smart watch, uh, you can turn the feature on
- 48:07Speaker 5: so you can tap your watch.
- 48:09Speaker 3: So I was doing that. I was, I was paying
- 48:11Speaker 3: for strangers. It was so much fun. So that's two
- 48:15Speaker 3: different properties here, you know, and obviously the very first
- 48:18Speaker 3: thing is the subway takes, I think those are equally
- 48:21Speaker 3: as interesting. And the other one is keep the meter
- 48:23Speaker 3: running both by the same guy. Um, but really both
- 48:26Speaker 3: interesting in their own right. I found it fascinating. I'm
- 48:30Speaker 3: definitely going to watch at least one or two more
- 48:32Speaker 3: of these episodes, especially the celebrity ones. I would like
- 48:34Speaker 3: to see him interact with a couple people that I'm
- 48:37Speaker 3: fans of. I want to see the Charlize Theron one
- 48:39Speaker 3: because I know I've seen her in interviews before. Did
- 48:42Speaker 3: you ever see her between the ferns with Zach Galifianakis?
- 48:45Speaker 7: No.
- 48:45Speaker 3: Yeah, that's when you know. that she is not a
- 48:48Speaker 3: prissy Hollywood princess. She isn't far from that. I did
- 48:53Speaker 3: watch the subway takes with Woody Harrelson. He's kind of fun.
- 48:57Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 48:58Speaker 5: He, and I guess he and Matthew McConaughey have a
- 49:00Speaker 5: show coming out this month.
- 49:01Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 49:02Speaker 3: A new show where it's a show about them being
- 49:04Speaker 3: best friends. But I guess the premise is they find
- 49:08Speaker 3: out that, that I think it's Matthew McConaughey. His mom
- 49:12Speaker 3: is also Woody Harrelson's mom and, because of a fling
- 49:15Speaker 3: she had back in the day, and they're just kind
- 49:16Speaker 3: of learning this as the show goes on. That's kind
- 49:19Speaker 3: of what I heard it's about.
- 49:20Speaker 5: I heard that they kind of put that as a theory,
- 49:23Speaker 5: but I'm not sure there's a lot behind that.
- 49:25Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 49:26Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 49:26Speaker 3: Okay, good. They've been kind of alluding to that for
- 49:28Speaker 3: a bit.
- 49:29Speaker 4: Kind of like the Bill Burr.
- 49:31Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, but that was real. That was Billy Corgan? Yeah,
- 49:34Speaker 3: Billy Corgan. Wow, what a trip that was.
- 49:37Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 49:37Speaker 4: So anyway, only Burr had been told.
- 49:39Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 49:40Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 49:40Speaker 5: On our website, you go to Jim Colbert, live.com. You, you,
- 49:44Speaker 5: you'll see the, what'd you do? That's a new master list.
- 49:46Speaker 5: And the most recent one was Cheryl's suggestion of, We
- 49:50Speaker 5: put a couple clips from Subway Takes and also the
- 49:54Speaker 5: teaser for Keep the Meter Running with Kareem Rama. You
- 49:58Speaker 5: can link up to that there. And then we will

- 50:19Speaker 3: Orlando right now. And it's a really cool spot. They
- 50:22Speaker 3: just came on to do Whiskey of the Week. I
- 50:24Speaker 3: think we just finished our first month. It was absolutely wonderful.
- 50:27Speaker 3: But one of the things that comes up a lot
- 50:28Speaker 3: when whiskey is the topic is what makes what what?
- 50:33Speaker 3: Because there's Irish whiskey, bourbon whiskey, scotch, rye, and all
- 50:38Speaker 3: of these different kinds of whiskeys. It's difficult to kind
- 50:41Speaker 3: of find out which is which.
- 50:42Speaker 5: Well, this is a 13-minute class.
- 50:45Speaker 3: On what makes what whiskey what. Dig it. And how
- 50:49Speaker 3: you can figure it out. So if you've ever wondered
- 50:51Speaker 3: out there what makes scotch whiskey scotch, what makes bourbon bourbon,
- 50:55Speaker 3: what makes rye whiskey rye, which one came first, what
- 50:58Speaker 3: techniques have to be used, all the rules and stuff, well,

- 51:05Speaker 3: And I watched the entire thing, and it's absolutely perfect.
- 51:08Speaker 3: Very easy.
- 51:09Speaker 5: No, uh, no, uh, uh, No detailed explanations.

- 51:24Speaker 3: Back in one sec with more of the Jim Colbert Show.
- 51:32Speaker 3: Proudly sponsored since day one by Glenn Klausman. KlausmanLaw.com.
- 51:44Speaker 1: Bye.
- 51:46Speaker 16: Radio 104.1, where we're taking names and sniffing booty.
- 51:50Speaker 8: And right now, we're out of names.
- 51:53Speaker 17: Hey, ladies.
- 51:56Speaker 19: So just as you guys say he got caught because
- 51:58Speaker 19: he violated parole, I'm assuming that part of his parole
- 52:02Speaker 19: violation is he couldn't do that anymore. And because he
- 52:07Speaker 19: did that again, he violated his parole. Just like animal
- 52:12Speaker 19: abusers aren't allowed to have animals anymore, having animals isn't.
- 52:16Speaker 3: A crime anymore.
- 52:17Speaker 6: The abuse is the crime.
- 52:18Speaker 3: Got it.
- 52:19Speaker 8: So maybe it's like that.
- 52:20Speaker 4: Got it.
- 52:21Speaker 3: I mean, that's as good an explanation as I've gotten,
- 52:23Speaker 3: so we'll roll with that one until we get a
- 52:25Speaker 3: better one. Welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show, Real
- 52:28Speaker 3: Radio 104.1. I am Jim. There's Deb.
- 52:30Speaker 8: Hello.
- 52:31Speaker 3: And Jack is here as well. Yeah, talking about the
- 52:32Speaker 3: butt sniffer.
- 52:33Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 52:34Speaker 4: Man, I had no idea.
- 52:35Speaker 3: The serial butt sniffer, we can say that. I mean,
- 52:39Speaker 3: 40 arrests, and we're not sure that all 40 of
- 52:41Speaker 3: these were butt-related. You know, at least one of those
- 52:45Speaker 3: was a Peeping Tom... yes scenario but here's my thing
- 52:48Speaker 3: though i mean you know 40 arrests of that nature
- 52:52Speaker 3: should lead you to believe that this guy does not
- 52:54Speaker 3: have control of the scenario and i mean at that
- 52:56Speaker 3: one at that point i mean somebody texted.
- 52:59Speaker 4: That earlier when do you keep these creeps behind bars.
- 53:03Speaker 3: It's inevitable this guy's going to do something that's going
- 53:05Speaker 3: to be way way worse than sniffing a butt in
- 53:07Speaker 3: a bookstore.
- 53:08Speaker 4: He's 39 years old is already facing you know 39
- 53:11Speaker 4: arrests and He started with peeping into someone's home. Now
- 53:14Speaker 4: he's actively sniffing derrieres.
- 53:16Speaker 5: Well, they're serious now because, I mean, no bond is
- 53:18Speaker 5: a big deal, right? When you don't have the opportunity
- 53:20Speaker 5: to get out. They're holding this guy. There's no violent
- 53:22Speaker 5: felony here by any means, and they're holding him with
- 53:24Speaker 5: no bond. That lets you know that they're.
- 53:25Speaker 3: Serious, at least.
- 53:27Speaker 4: Let's hope.
- 53:28Speaker 3: All right, 77031, that's how you text us. You know,
- 53:30Speaker 3: we've heard some sketchy information about libraries here recently. We
- 53:33Speaker 3: know the city of Altamont is thinking about shutting that
- 53:36Speaker 3: library down. And, you know, we know how important these
- 53:42Speaker 3: institutions are to our communities. You know, I know, you know,
- 53:45Speaker 3: people go to libraries for a number of reasons. And
- 53:48Speaker 3: why I bring this story up is because here in Castleberry, Florida,
- 53:51Speaker 3: for you guys who are out of the area, maybe
- 53:53Speaker 3: just live in another area of Florida, Castleberry is really
- 53:55Speaker 3: not far from where we are right now in Maitland,
- 53:57Speaker 3: just right around the corner. And actually near Jackson River
- 54:00Speaker 3: as well. That's where the library I go to, and
- 54:03Speaker 3: I was just there the other day returning a book.
- 54:06Speaker 4: Yeah, very nice.
- 54:07Speaker 5: Well, they've started something. I don't know if you noticed
- 54:09Speaker 5: it while you were there. What?
- 54:10Speaker 3: The Seminole County Library Branch in Castleberry has launched a
- 54:14Speaker 3: different thing for libraries. And, again, I don't know how
- 54:18Speaker 3: many libraries are doing this, but I think it is
- 54:21Speaker 3: a wonderful idea. They're launching this thing called the Library
- 54:25Speaker 3: of Things Project. What do you think a library of
- 54:29Speaker 3: things is?
- 54:30Speaker 4: Well, if it's anything like my cool library in Mount Dora,
- 54:34Speaker 4: you can check out baking pans.
- 54:36Speaker 3: I think that's exactly what this is. This is a
- 54:38Speaker 3: collection of unique items that residents can borrow for free
- 54:42Speaker 3: just simply using their library card.
- 54:44Speaker 4: Isn't that cool?
- 54:45Speaker 3: And it's other things. It says it's different types of
- 54:47Speaker 3: programs that people can enjoy with their family at home. Now,
- 54:51Speaker 3: I guess this is Lee Constantine's baby. And, of course,
- 54:54Speaker 3: he's been a Seminole County Commissioner since time began. And
- 54:58Speaker 3: it includes items like American Girl dolls that are paired
- 55:03Speaker 3: up with books that represent different eras of history.
- 55:06Speaker 4: Oh, that's going to be a tough one to get back. Yeah. Well,
- 55:08Speaker 4: that's going to be a tough one.
- 55:11Speaker 3: That's the thing about this program, because when I go
- 55:13Speaker 3: down this list and kind of tell you what they're
- 55:14Speaker 3: allowing you to check out for nothing at the library,
- 55:17Speaker 3: you know, basically it's just you get your library card.
- 55:20Speaker 3: How much does that cost a year, by the way?
- 55:21Speaker 6: It's nothing.
- 55:22Speaker 4: It's nothing.
- 55:22Speaker 3: It's free, right?
- 55:23Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 55:23Speaker 3: That means the checkouts are free as well. Yeah, and
- 55:25Speaker 3: they have a digital card, too, so you get it
- 55:27Speaker 3: and add it to your phone wallet. Like an app thing, right?
- 55:30Speaker 4: Yeah, great place to get music, movies, baking pans.
- 55:34Speaker 3: You can get DVDs.
- 55:35Speaker 4: Hey, Jack, they have sewing classes as well.
- 55:37Speaker 3: I know, but they start before our show ends.
- 55:39Speaker 2: Oh, really?
- 55:40Speaker 3: I thought about it. It says everything is based on
- 55:43Speaker 3: the idea of the object being a learning experience. Each
- 55:46Speaker 3: of those dolls, by the way, going back to the
- 55:47Speaker 3: American Girl doll thing, It says they have a story
- 55:49Speaker 3: that represents an era of history, so they'll pair that
- 55:52Speaker 3: doll up with a book that explains why that doll
- 55:55Speaker 3: is represented by that fashion or that hairstyle choice or
- 55:59Speaker 3: whatever the case may be, and it explains why that
- 56:01Speaker 3: became trendy and then goes into that era. I think
- 56:03Speaker 3: that's brilliant, right?
- 56:04Speaker 4: That's the whole American doll thing.
- 56:06Speaker 3: Yeah, well, the whole idea of getting people to learn
- 56:09Speaker 3: is making them interested. Sitting in a classroom, staring at
- 56:11Speaker 3: a board or a computer, we know for a fact
- 56:14Speaker 3: now digital learning has caused our test scores to drop.
- 56:16Speaker 4: Well, for a lot of homeschoolers, the library becomes almost
- 56:20Speaker 4: like a school. It's a huge resource for those who
- 56:24Speaker 4: are homeschooling.
- 56:25Speaker 3: How about this? You can check out a birding backpack.
- 56:28Speaker 3: So you can go to get a backpack, and I
- 56:30Speaker 3: guess it would have binoculars. It would have a book
- 56:34Speaker 3: and a field guide to let you know what you're
- 56:35Speaker 3: looking at, what those birds are about.
- 56:38Speaker 8: Nice.
- 56:38Speaker 3: How about on top of that, how about a telescope?
- 56:41Speaker 4: Nice.
- 56:42Speaker 3: You can rent out a telescope and a couple of
- 56:44Speaker 3: books to kind of help you understand what When you
- 56:47Speaker 3: focus that thing toward the sky, what exactly you're looking at,
- 56:49Speaker 3: what that means.
- 56:50Speaker 5: I love this idea. I think it's unbelievably cool. Where
- 56:53Speaker 5: do the things come from? Are they donated things or
- 56:56Speaker 5: do they buy these things?
- 56:58Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously they're donated or bought. It says here, the
- 57:00Speaker 3: Library of Things is made possible through the support of
- 57:02Speaker 3: the Seminole County Friends of the Library, and there are
- 57:05Speaker 3: plans to expand this collection. It says the next thing
- 57:08Speaker 3: that's coming to our collection are mushroom sets. Are mushroom sets?
- 57:12Speaker 3: What's a mushroom in? Oh, I don't know, but I
- 57:14Speaker 3: appreciate you trying that again.
- 57:16Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, Mashumen said, right? M-A-S-H-U. It's Mashumen.
- 57:23Speaker 4: Mashumen.
- 57:24Speaker 3: I don't know what that is.
- 57:25Speaker 4: I have no idea.
- 57:25Speaker 3: It says it's fascinating because there's a movement all over
- 57:28Speaker 3: the U.S., not just their library. All over the country,
- 57:31Speaker 3: counties and libraries in Florida are doing this, but also
- 57:34Speaker 3: libraries throughout the U.S. are starting to kind of endeavor
- 57:36Speaker 3: into these different kind of things where you can go
- 57:38Speaker 3: in and rent other than music, movies, DVDs, and books online.
- 57:42Speaker 3: Other things for other interests, whether it be, I mean,
- 57:45Speaker 3: I guess maybe chess boards, something like that. If you
- 57:46Speaker 3: don't have one of those at home, you can rent
- 57:48Speaker 3: one of those. And I don't know what the length
- 57:50Speaker 3: of time is that you can keep it out. What's
- 57:52Speaker 3: the length of a library book, Jack? Three weeks. Three weeks.
- 57:56Speaker 3: So I'm guessing you could do that. Or you just
- 57:58Speaker 3: go to the pawn shop next to the library.
- 58:01Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 58:02Speaker 4: Because they're going to have lots of books at the
- 58:04Speaker 4: pawn shop.
- 58:04Speaker 3: No, no, I'm just talking about when you run out
- 58:06Speaker 3: of a telescope.
- 58:06Speaker 9: Oh, right.
- 58:07Speaker 3: It's going to be interesting kind of figuring out how.
- 58:08Speaker 3: I wonder if you would have to put a deposit
- 58:10Speaker 3: down on some of the things that are more expensive, though.
- 58:12Speaker 4: That's kind of what I was wondering.
- 58:13Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah.
- 58:13Speaker 4: How they're going to get around you not returning that item.
- 58:16Speaker 5: Right, right, right.
- 58:17Speaker 3: Yeah, because if you don't, I mean, obviously canceling your
- 58:19Speaker 3: library card isn't going to be that big of a thing.
- 58:22Speaker 4: And are you aware of how expensive American dolls are?
- 58:24Speaker 4: American girl dolls are?
- 58:26Speaker 3: I don't know anything about them. I mean, I just
- 58:28Speaker 3: know they're very popular.
- 58:29Speaker 4: Very popular.
- 58:30Speaker 3: Are they expensive?
- 58:32Speaker 4: What would you consider expensive?
- 58:35Speaker 5: I mean, for a baby doll in 2026, I don't know,
- 58:37Speaker 5: like 50 bucks.
- 58:39Speaker 4: It's not really a baby doll.
- 58:41Speaker 3: It's not a baby doll.
- 58:42Speaker 10: Really?
- 58:43Speaker 3: Is it like 50 bucks is not enough? That would
- 58:45Speaker 3: not buy one. But isn't like a Barbie now, like
- 58:48Speaker 3: almost like 30, 40 dollars.
- 58:50Speaker 4: A Barbie is.
- 58:51Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 58:53Speaker 4: American Girl 18-inch dolls and baby dolls can go anywhere
- 58:58Speaker 4: from 30 and under, 100 and under, 150. Damn, really?
- 59:03Speaker 4: And 150 and over.
- 59:05Speaker 5: Really? What makes them more than that? Like the accoutrement
- 59:08Speaker 5: that comes with the doll?
- 59:09Speaker 4: The clothes. the story, because the book is written and
- 59:12Speaker 4: then the doll is kind of created to tell you
- 59:14Speaker 4: the story that's in the book.
- 59:16Speaker 3: Did not know that.
- 59:16Speaker 4: I didn't either. There's an interesting piece on CBS Sunday
- 59:20Speaker 4: Morning of the woman who came up with the idea. Very,
- 59:23Speaker 4: very popular, but very expensive. So it'd be Like, tempting.
- 59:27Speaker 4: I mean, how do you take that doll away from
- 59:29Speaker 4: a little girl and say, well, your time is up
- 59:31Speaker 4: with the library.
- 59:32Speaker 3: I mean, that is a good lesson. But the cool
- 59:34Speaker 3: thing is they have multiple of these dolls. Obviously, when
- 59:37Speaker 3: you turn that doll in, you can get a doll
- 59:38Speaker 3: from a different era or a different style or.
- 59:40Speaker 4: Something like that. I think that's a great idea. Engaging
- 59:43Speaker 4: kids wherever and however you can.
- 59:45Speaker 3: That's crazy, man. I love this idea. It says supporters
- 59:48Speaker 3: of the initiative say the library of things is designed
- 59:51Speaker 3: to be fun and engaging. This kind of reminds me
- 59:53Speaker 3: of the creator space thing. At the science center.
- 59:56Speaker 4: Right.
- 59:56Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 59:57Speaker 5: Where you can go in there that it's called the hive,
- 59:59Speaker 5: I think, or something like that, or the nest or
- 1:00:01Speaker 5: something like that.
- 1:00:01Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:00:02Speaker 5: It took a few pages to get, but a mushroom
- 1:00:04Speaker 5: and set is the special learning kit added to the
- 1:00:08Speaker 5: library thing. So it's not only the telescope, it's the
- 1:00:11Speaker 5: books that teach you how to use things. You can look,
- 1:00:14Speaker 5: it's the things that you need. So it's really a
- 1:00:17Speaker 5: complete learning kit. And somebody said that the American dolls
- 1:00:20Speaker 5: is a collection, not a toy. So it's not really
- 1:00:22Speaker 5: to be played with. It's like just to be admired.
- 1:00:26Speaker 5: That's what some people would say, looking as an investment.
- 1:00:32Speaker 4: Tell that to your nine-year-old daughter.
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: What's the point of it if you're not going to
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: play with it? Well, my daughter has a Barbie doll
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: from every year that she was born. So that means
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: in my house right now, I have 28 Barbie dolls. Unpacked,
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: I mean, are completely packed up, never been touched, never
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: been opened. Will you take a picture with them? No,
- 1:00:51Speaker 3: I will not.
- 1:00:52Speaker 5: Come on.
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: One of the biggest banes of moving has been moving
- 1:00:56Speaker 3: her collection of Barbie dolls because she's never lived in
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: a place big enough to keep them herself. So I've
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: had this basically, I'm not kidding, it is a full
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: closet full of Barbie dolls. Everything from, like I think
- 1:01:09Speaker 3: she was born in 97 or 98, 97. So Barbie
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: dolls all the way up the line, dude. Oh, 97.
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: It's one way to mark the time.
- 1:01:20Speaker 6: Right.
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: She's 29. So just give me a heads up there.
- 1:01:23Speaker 4: How are you feeling there?
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: I don't like doing the math. I'm going to be
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: honest with you.
- 1:01:31Speaker 4: Youngest, right?
- 1:01:32Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: She is the youngest. That's the scariest one.
- 1:01:35Speaker 4: Oh.
- 1:01:36Speaker 3: Just by a little bit, but she is. All right, 407-916-1041.
- 1:01:40Speaker 3: Text us at 77031. What a unique thing for Castleberry
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: to have that first. I figured that would be like
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: a downtown Orlando. One of the bigger libraries would have
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: that first program.
- 1:01:48Speaker 5: God, take that.
- 1:01:49Speaker 3: Seminole County had it. Yeah, yeah. Seminole County blown it up.
- 1:01:51Speaker 6: Oh, suck it.
- 1:01:51Speaker 4: We've had it before. You guys?
- 1:01:53Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't know. No one's in Lake– they don't
- 1:01:55Speaker 3: read in Lake County.
- 1:01:56Speaker 4: Yeah, okay.
- 1:01:57Speaker 3: They only bake. Do you know anything else they have
- 1:02:00Speaker 3: out there that would be kind of cool?
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: I was just shocked that it was more than just
- 1:02:03Speaker 4: books and stuff. Walking through the lobby and then seeing
- 1:02:05Speaker 4: the computer rooms and it's– it's a great place to
- 1:02:09Speaker 4: donate puzzles because they'll have like tables where folks can
- 1:02:12Speaker 4: go and set up the puzzles.
- 1:02:14Speaker 5: Oh, I think like knitting kits or crocheting. They do
- 1:02:17Speaker 5: have classes for crocheting, knitting, and sewing.
- 1:02:19Speaker 3: That would be kind of fun, like some outdoorsy stuff,
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: like maybe how to, you know, I mean, not how
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: to build a fire or anything, but, you know, maybe
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: some I don't know.
- 1:02:27Speaker 4: Our library has a beautiful butterfly garden. It suffered really
- 1:02:29Speaker 4: bad after the freeze, but it's a good place for families. And,
- 1:02:32Speaker 4: you know, if you take your dog for a walk
- 1:02:34Speaker 4: and just walk through the butterfly garden.
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: Where is this?
- 1:02:36Speaker 4: Where is this library? This library is right off of
- 1:02:39Speaker 4: Donnelly Street. Is it really? Yeah, it's the Mount Dory.
- 1:02:42Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:02:42Speaker 5: I've never seen it. Why is it so magical? Honestly,
- 1:02:46Speaker 5: I've never seen the Mount Dory library.
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 1:02:48Speaker 4: It's a great, you know, that's a place we'll donate books.
- 1:02:51Speaker 4: We'll donate puzzles.
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy.
- 1:02:55Speaker 5: Wow, man.
- 1:02:55Speaker 3: Well, I just think it's kind of cool that Casper,
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: when I saw that this morning, I was like, well,
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: that's a great idea. It really is. I mean, you
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: could make a list of stuff that would be cool
- 1:03:02Speaker 3: to have in there that you could just kind of
- 1:03:04Speaker 3: rent out and then go do it. Just a couple
- 1:03:07Speaker 3: gloves and a ball.
- 1:03:08Speaker 4: Something that's free?
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: I mean, a wiffle ball set. Look, man, you could
- 1:03:10Speaker 3: do all kinds of crap there.
- 1:03:11Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and you don't have that extra expense, right?
- 1:03:14Speaker 4: Because if you maybe want to take one of those
- 1:03:16Speaker 4: things up, then you're going to have to go to
- 1:03:18Speaker 4: the store and get it yourself. This way you can...
- 1:03:20Speaker 4: You know, try a telescope with the books and see
- 1:03:23Speaker 4: if it's something you want to invest money in rather
- 1:03:25Speaker 4: than the other way around.
- 1:03:26Speaker 5: Maybe an easel or something with a game of paint.
- 1:03:29Speaker 5: See if you have any artistic possibilities there.
- 1:03:32Speaker 4: You never know.
- 1:03:33Speaker 3: Let's move on real quick.
- 1:03:34Speaker 8: 407-916-1041.
- 1:03:34Speaker 3: So you guys know who Aaron Sorkin is?
- 1:03:39Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:03:40Speaker 3: He is a director, or he's actually a writer. He's
- 1:03:43Speaker 3: a writer. He wrote the movie The Social Network.
- 1:03:46Speaker 20: Right.
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: Also one of the creators of The West Wing. Yes,
- 1:03:50Speaker 3: he is. Um, he had in 2010 when he made, uh,
- 1:03:54Speaker 3: when he wrote the social network, he had never really
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: heard of it. He had heard of Facebook, but really
- 1:03:58Speaker 3: didn't understand Facebook. He wanted to write the story of
- 1:04:01Speaker 3: how it came about. So now there's actually a new
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: movie coming out called the social reckoning. And he's, and
- 1:04:08Speaker 3: he's writing it and he's taught, and it basically picks
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: up where the social network left off the invention and, uh,
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: creation and, you know, kind of, uh, explosion of Facebook
- 1:04:19Speaker 3: in its early days, the lawsuits with, Everybody involved with it,
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: the Winklevoss brothers and the whole nine yards kind of
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: stops there. Now it picks up right in the middle
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: of the controversy that Facebook is in right now and
- 1:04:32Speaker 3: moves forward. And it's called the social reckoning.
- 1:04:36Speaker 4: Sounds like it's going to be a good time.
- 1:04:38Speaker 3: I'm interested. It says a social network was interested or
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: was in the was about the invention of Facebook. The
- 1:04:45Speaker 3: reckoning is about what it's become now. particularly Facebook's role
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: in the rise of extremism and divisiveness. It's going to
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: release October 9th, and it's one of the most timely
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: arrivals out there. It says the film's debut, the trailer
- 1:04:58Speaker 3: debuted the same day at Meta. Facebook's parent company agreed
- 1:05:02Speaker 3: to pay $ 18 billion in penalties over claims its platform
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: endangered children. And, of course, some states, like ours, do
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: not even think that's enough. They don't want them off
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: the hook for that money. They want criminal charges, I believe.
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: Isn't that what Uthmeyer's going for? Or Uthmeyer. That's what
- 1:05:18Speaker 3: he said. Yeah, yeah. He wants criminal charges. Yeah, the
- 1:05:21Speaker 3: money's one thing. He wants them to be held criminally
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: liable for it.
- 1:05:25Speaker 4: Tell you what, hold your breath.
- 1:05:26Speaker 5: Yeah, it's going to be a very good... I wish
- 1:05:28Speaker 5: you the very best, Uthmeyer.
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. I mean, I guess you're a superstar here
- 1:05:32Speaker 3: in Florida, but I got bad news for you on
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: the national level with a guy with, let's say, $ 150
- 1:05:36Speaker 3: billion in assets to fight you. I don't like your chances.
- 1:05:40Speaker 4: Right, exactly.
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: But either way, it's poised to further scrutinize the social
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: media behemoth... At a time.
- 1:05:46Speaker 5: When Zuckerberg is under greater pressure than ever, the role
- 1:05:49Speaker 5: Facebook has played in contemporary politics and life.
- 1:05:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: It says, when you see this movie, number one, you'll
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: want to be entertained. The second, you should be alarmed.
- 1:06:00Speaker 3: That's what he says. Get ready to be alarmed. It's
- 1:06:04Speaker 3: always smart. He has smart writing. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:06:06Speaker 5: And the West Wing was that. Also, it's the walk
- 1:06:10Speaker 5: and talk. Where the characters are walking a lot, but
- 1:06:14Speaker 5: always talking.
- 1:06:15Speaker 9: Right.
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: There's a lot of dialogue.
- 1:06:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:06:17Speaker 3: Also, there's a movie coming out from Alex Gibney. It's
- 1:06:20Speaker 3: a four-hour documentary on Elon Musk called Musk. And it
- 1:06:25Speaker 3: is also about the social media moguls who have and
- 1:06:28Speaker 3: continue to shape American culture, actually global culture. So that's
- 1:06:33Speaker 3: coming up October 16th of this year.
- 1:06:35Speaker 4: Which is interesting because so many of those moguls tend
- 1:06:38Speaker 4: to be kind of anti-social people. Like the nerdy kind of,
- 1:06:42Speaker 4: you know, the tech guys, the tech bros that didn't
- 1:06:45Speaker 4: have the best maybe interpersonal skills.
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: Yeah, locked in.
- 1:06:48Speaker 4: Funny that they would come up with something called social media.
- 1:06:52Speaker 3: You look at Musk's relationship with his own family. You
- 1:06:56Speaker 3: can see, I mean, again, I don't know his daily thing.
- 1:06:59Speaker 3: It just doesn't look like he spends a lot of
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: time with his 13 kids.
- 1:07:01Speaker 4: When his baby mamas have to go on X to say, hey,
- 1:07:04Speaker 4: call me. The kid's got to go to the doctor's.
- 1:07:06Speaker 17: Exactly.
- 1:07:07Speaker 4: It doesn't look good.
- 1:07:07Speaker 3: And there's another one from a filmmaker called Luca Guadagnino.
- 1:07:12Speaker 5: Oh, man.
- 1:07:13Speaker 4: There you go.
- 1:07:15Speaker 5: Guadagnino. G-U-A-D-A-G.
- 1:07:19Speaker 4: Nino.
- 1:07:20Speaker 3: Guadagnino?
- 1:07:21Speaker 5: There you go.
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: It's called Artificial, and it's about Sam Altman from OpenAI.
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: So we have some salvos being shot. In October for
- 1:07:31Speaker 3: our social media giants. There we go.
- 1:07:33Speaker 4: Let's see. I'm sure they're going to come out smelling
- 1:07:35Speaker 4: like roses.
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: It ain't going to matter. I mean, I don't know
- 1:07:39Speaker 3: that you could. Do we all know that Facebook is
- 1:07:41Speaker 3: kind of sideways? I mean, kind of everybody understands that
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: when you're paying 18 billion dollars in fines. I mean,
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: that has to be one of the biggest settlements in
- 1:07:48Speaker 3: American history.
- 1:07:49Speaker 5: Yeah, but the for the politicians to stand in the
- 1:07:53Speaker 5: face of to go up against something like that. They
- 1:07:57Speaker 5: have to feel threatened, and they're threatened by the will
- 1:08:00Speaker 5: of the people. I think the flock camera situation is
- 1:08:04Speaker 5: a great example of when people collectively agree they don't
- 1:08:09Speaker 5: like something. Bipartisan, which is rare. Yes, and so that's,
- 1:08:13Speaker 5: you know, you saw an about face. I mean, you know,
- 1:08:16Speaker 5: DeSantis and everyone, credit for them for kind of pulling
- 1:08:19Speaker 5: the plug on flock, but guess what? They're the ones
- 1:08:22Speaker 5: who actually plugged them in at first. It's a purely
- 1:08:24Speaker 5: political move. They brought the cameras here. Now they're saying,
- 1:08:27Speaker 5: all right, let's get rid of them, which I'm on
- 1:08:30Speaker 5: board with. However, but that's what the power, when you
- 1:08:34Speaker 5: have the people getting together on one issue that it
- 1:08:39Speaker 5: can't be denied, I think there's something there that, you know,
- 1:08:43Speaker 5: politicians pay attention to and then can direct that towards,
- 1:08:47Speaker 5: you know, whether it's, reforming social media or doing other things,
- 1:08:51Speaker 5: but it's tough in the face of all that money,
- 1:08:53Speaker 5: because guess what?
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: It's all the money.
- 1:08:55Speaker 5: It's the data.
- 1:08:56Speaker 7: Center.
- 1:08:56Speaker 3: It's the billionaire. It's the same data center argument. It's
- 1:08:58Speaker 3: the same exact argument, right? It's the same exact argument.
- 1:09:02Speaker 5: Yeah, it's interesting.
- 1:09:02Speaker 3: I was just looking up while you were talking there,
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: the Volkswagen emissions litigation. Remember that case when they were
- 1:09:08Speaker 3: faking the numbers of the exhaust notes or the emission
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: numbers for Volkswagens?
- 1:09:13Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: That was a $ 14. 7 billion settlement.
- 1:09:14Speaker 7: So....
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: The Facebook settlement was $ 18 billion, so $ 3. 3 billion more
- 1:09:23Speaker 3: than the largest ever. Cost of inflation, they paid more
- 1:09:26Speaker 3: back then?
- 1:09:27Speaker 5: Maybe so. I think that was in 2005 or something
- 1:09:30Speaker 5: for that one. No, no, no. It doesn't say, but
- 1:09:34Speaker 5: I think it was just like five years ago. Was
- 1:09:37Speaker 5: it more than that?
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: Was it really? The Volkswagen thing? I thought it was
- 1:09:40Speaker 3: like five years ago.
- 1:09:42Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I think it was longer.
- 1:09:44Speaker 6: Was it?
- 1:09:44Speaker 5: Yeah, it could be. My date calendar is really bad internally.
- 1:09:48Speaker 5: I know, that's why it's funny when you said, I
- 1:09:50Speaker 5: think it was five. It's like, well, I know definitely
- 1:09:52Speaker 5: one thing it's not, five years ago.
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: Well, go check it out real quick.
- 1:09:55Speaker 4: Yeah, because we would have been talking about it.
- 1:09:58Speaker 3: Yeah, 2016.
- 1:09:59Speaker 5: Yeah, 2016.
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: I just put my glasses on. I can see it now. Yeah,
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: so 10 years ago, yeah.
- 1:10:03Speaker 7: All right, 407-916.
- 1:10:03Speaker 3: There it is right there the whole time. All right,
- 1:10:06Speaker 3: back in a sec.
- 1:10:13Speaker 20: Had the same problem on deck inspection to myself, but
- 1:10:15Speaker 20: also get this, had a job up in Titusville where
- 1:10:18Speaker 20: since we were taking away permeable ground in the backyard
- 1:10:21Speaker 20: with the pool, they had them rip out their entire
- 1:10:23Speaker 20: concrete driveway and replace it with permeable pavers because.
- 1:10:27Speaker 8: Of the pool.
- 1:10:29Speaker 6: Bull.
- 1:10:29Speaker 20: But also, you know where it's really the worst, Jimmy?
- 1:10:32Speaker 7: Over in Italy.
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: They're way too lenient. Get it?
- 1:10:36Speaker 6: Big T out.
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:10:47Speaker 3: Just kind of, just want to, like, let that one
- 1:10:49Speaker 3: air out before I play that.
- 1:10:50Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I got you, yeah.
- 1:10:51Speaker 4: Let that one air out.
- 1:10:52Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:10:53Speaker 12: I was listening to the show yesterday, as I always do.
- 1:10:56Speaker 4: I just happened to be in our commissary over here.
- 1:10:58Speaker 8: I'm Patrick.
- 1:11:00Speaker 4: And I heard you talking about the limited edition Apple Pie.
- 1:11:03Speaker 6: All Mode Oreos.
- 1:11:05Speaker 7: Yes.
- 1:11:06Speaker 4: So I thought I'd pick up a packet, which I did.
- 1:11:08Speaker 13: And this, Jimmy, is a sound.
- 1:11:14Speaker 8: The package.
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: It's too good.
- 1:11:19Speaker 8: Delicious.
- 1:11:19Speaker 3: Yeah, it's too good.
- 1:11:20Speaker 4: Oreo.
- 1:11:21Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:11:21Speaker 3: You can't believe how much it tastes like an apple pie.
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: Ray Trinley had one yesterday, and he said, dude, it's
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: like biting into a piece of apple pie. That's how
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: good it is.
- 1:11:30Speaker 7: Unbelievable.
- 1:11:30Speaker 5: By the way, Big T, I just saw a guy
- 1:11:34Speaker 5: sniffing your joke.
- 1:11:37Speaker 4: Oh, come on, man.
- 1:11:38Speaker 3: That must mean it stinks.
- 1:11:40Speaker 4: Rightful.
- 1:11:41Speaker 5: All right, 407-916-1041, text 77031. Welcome back.
- 1:11:45Speaker 8: I'm Jim.
- 1:11:45Speaker 3: There's Deb.
- 1:11:46Speaker 7: Hello.
- 1:11:46Speaker 3: Jack is here as well.
- 1:11:47Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:11:48Speaker 3: So have you guys heard, you know, the USS Abraham
- 1:11:53Speaker 3: Lincoln is finally getting to go somewhere and let off
- 1:11:58Speaker 3: these sailors.
- 1:11:59Speaker 5: Do you have any idea where they're doing this? Have
- 1:12:02Speaker 5: you heard?
- 1:12:03Speaker 4: I do know.
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: I guess it's not here in the States. Did you
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: hear the balls that these guys had to say to
- 1:12:10Speaker 3: these sailors? 5,000 sailors have been on this boat for
- 1:12:12Speaker 3: 230 days? No, 200 over 250. Over 250 days. The
- 1:12:19Speaker 3: authorities have set out rules, Jack, for American sailors and
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: Marines coming ashore from the USS Abraham Lincoln during an
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: expected stop in the coastal destination that I will tell
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: you about in a second. They're warning them, whatever you do,
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: don't break the local rules. You could face prosecution. We
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: need you to go out there and be a good
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: boy in Thailand.
- 1:12:39Speaker 6: Oh, my.
- 1:12:39Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:12:42Speaker 5: Are these people out of their mind you're gonna let
- 1:12:46Speaker 5: 5 000 sailors that have been on a boat for
- 1:12:48Speaker 5: almost a year loose in thailand and you think that
- 1:12:51Speaker 5: anything you say is going to pinch them these people
- 1:12:54Speaker 5: are going to lose their minds like could you imagine
- 1:12:57Speaker 5: being on ground for the first time and it's thailand.
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: So now some of the stories uh coming out of
- 1:13:06Speaker 3: the military or or.
- 1:13:09Speaker 5: You mean off that boat? No, overall, it's just saddening.
- 1:13:14Speaker 5: The battle between Hegseth and the people.
- 1:13:18Speaker 3: Who are retiring. He runs the army. He just resigned.
- 1:13:20Speaker 5: Yeah, and he had that run-in with the person who
- 1:13:24Speaker 5: ran the Navy before that. A former person out of
- 1:13:29Speaker 5: the military said, we're being led by the B team now.
- 1:13:33Speaker 5: Because they've lost so much talent and There's only a
- 1:13:37Speaker 5: handful of four-star generals left, and it's just scary. Well,
- 1:13:40Speaker 5: the problem is a lot of the areas where they're failing,
- 1:13:43Speaker 5: one of the first things that Hegseth did was fire
- 1:13:45Speaker 5: those generals that managed those positions. So it immediately made
- 1:13:49Speaker 5: our armies weaker because of that. But he also fired this– well,
- 1:13:54Speaker 5: the leader of the army just resigned because of his problems.
- 1:13:57Speaker 5: And actually, that guy went into Trump personally to have
- 1:13:59Speaker 5: a conversation about how he thinks– Hexeth is hurting him.
- 1:14:02Speaker 5: But this thing here is Pattaya City officials met with U.S.
- 1:14:06Speaker 5: Navy representatives and said, well, we're going to let you
- 1:14:08Speaker 5: come here, but you got to do some things. We
- 1:14:10Speaker 5: can't have these people running wild through our streets, even
- 1:14:13Speaker 5: though it is Thailand. Apparently, they're saying that, yeah, we
- 1:14:16Speaker 5: want this to boost tourism. And yeah, we certainly want
- 1:14:18Speaker 5: this to give money to the economy. But there's some
- 1:14:22Speaker 5: things they need to understand when they come on board,
- 1:14:24Speaker 5: when they come on land. And one of the things is,
- 1:14:27Speaker 5: is they can't take part in water-based activities. They can't
- 1:14:32Speaker 5: go to cannabis shops or pharmacies, and they can't take
- 1:14:36Speaker 5: part in water-based activities.
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: What is that? Like jet skiing and whatnot? Is that
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: what they're saying?
- 1:14:41Speaker 4: Parasailing, jet skiing, snorkeling, scuba diving tours.
- 1:14:48Speaker 3: Yeah, is that what it is? I wonder why that
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: would be. Yeah, I do not understand that either. Also,
- 1:14:53Speaker 3: it says that they will be blocked from certain streets
- 1:14:54Speaker 3: in the city, including the red light district. It says,
- 1:14:59Speaker 3: and the famous nightlife area Walking Street in the south
- 1:15:02Speaker 3: of the city is open to sailors, but they must
- 1:15:03Speaker 3: leave by 2 a.m. No ladyboys for you.
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:15:07Speaker 4: Me so honey.
- 1:15:08Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:15:08Speaker 3: It says, unlike in the U.S., vapes and e-cigarettes are
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: illegal in Thailand. Foreigners and Thai nationals found carrying them
- 1:15:14Speaker 3: can face jail time and fines worth several times the
- 1:15:17Speaker 3: value of the devices. It says they do have legalized
- 1:15:21Speaker 3: medical cannabis, but you have to have a license to
- 1:15:22Speaker 3: get it. Those breaking the law there can face a
- 1:15:26Speaker 3: year in jail and $ 600 in fines. It says they
- 1:15:29Speaker 3: have a visible reputation for sex tourism, despite prostitution being
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: illegal in Thailand. However, advocacy groups say that it's not
- 1:15:39Speaker 3: always fully policed.
- 1:15:41Speaker 2: No.
- 1:15:42Speaker 3: It says the influx of a large number of customers
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: may increase the likelihood of sexual exploitation and the spread
- 1:15:48Speaker 3: of STDs. Do these people know where they live?
- 1:15:52Speaker 2: No.
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: Some of these situations are a serious deal. If you
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: do that or you insult the country's monarchy, you can
- 1:16:03Speaker 3: spend 15 years in prison.
- 1:16:04Speaker 4: Yeah, you do.
- 1:16:06Speaker 3: You don't say anything about their government. You don't rag
- 1:16:08Speaker 3: on anybody in their government. You don't mock their government.
- 1:16:10Speaker 3: You don't make fun of it.
- 1:16:11Speaker 5: You don't make any gestures toward photographs or statues of
- 1:16:16Speaker 5: anybody in their government.
- 1:16:17Speaker 3: They're going to be there for four days. I predict
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: you will have 40 of those dudes that don't make
- 1:16:25Speaker 3: it back on board.
- 1:16:26Speaker 8: At least.
- 1:16:29Speaker 4: Let's see. 250 consecutive days at sea without a port
- 1:16:33Speaker 4: call marking a modern operational record never been done before.
- 1:16:38Speaker 4: And then you're going to drop them off in a
- 1:16:39Speaker 4: place like Thailand. Can't be Norway.
- 1:16:43Speaker 3: And I wonder why that is, because I thought that
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: the USS Abraham Lincoln was coming in for repairs as well,
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: because one of the things I remember about that ship
- 1:16:50Speaker 3: is the sewer system in the ship is really bad
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: and it clogs up all the time. It has to
- 1:16:55Speaker 3: perpetually be prepared or be repaired. So I thought they
- 1:16:58Speaker 3: were bringing this thing into dry dock, not dry dock,
- 1:17:00Speaker 3: bringing into have it looked over before they send it
- 1:17:02Speaker 3: back out.
- 1:17:03Speaker 4: Well, its home port is San Diego. There are speculations
- 1:17:06Speaker 4: that it's going to be moved from San Diego up
- 1:17:08Speaker 4: to Washington State.
- 1:17:10Speaker 9: Oh, really?
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: After this. So I think they're just bringing it back home.
- 1:17:14Speaker 4: Why stop? Why stop in Thailand, though? I mean, why
- 1:17:16Speaker 4: not just come home?
- 1:17:17Speaker 3: I don't get it.
- 1:17:17Speaker 4: Because to make life even more miserable for these 5000
- 1:17:20Speaker 4: plus sailors who've already been at sea almost nine months.
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: Or trying to make it less miserable because what's the
- 1:17:26Speaker 3: trek from Thailand to San Diego? Oh, well, I mean,
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: you just have three weeks on that boat probably, right?
- 1:17:32Speaker 5: So giving him four days, you know, now, and then,
- 1:17:35Speaker 5: all right, back on the ship.
- 1:17:36Speaker 3: Yeah, Guy says, I can also agree with the B-team statement.
- 1:17:40Speaker 3: Sometimes we feel rudderless and driven by politics that shouldn't
- 1:17:43Speaker 3: affect your job.
- 1:17:44Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:17:44Speaker 5: You know, as military people. Yeah, basically it's, yeah. It's
- 1:17:50Speaker 5: politics being the driving factor and culture wars are making–
- 1:17:56Speaker 5: it's how decisions are being made in our military, which
- 1:17:59Speaker 5: is usually outside of that.
- 1:18:01Speaker 4: Yes, because they serve the Constitution, not a political party.
- 1:18:05Speaker 3: Yeah, I showed Debra some pictures yesterday. It was on
- 1:18:07Speaker 3: Reddit of some of the meals that were being served
- 1:18:09Speaker 3: on the Lincoln, and it was– Like it was prisoner food.
- 1:18:13Speaker 3: Matter of fact, I can tell you.
- 1:18:14Speaker 5: It's worse.
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: Some of it was maybe worse than prisoner food.
- 1:18:17Speaker 4: And this has been going on for weeks and weeks
- 1:18:19Speaker 4: and weeks.
- 1:18:20Speaker 3: The old gray meat. No idea what it is.
- 1:18:22Speaker 4: And we're expecting them to be combat ready. And they're
- 1:18:26Speaker 4: barely getting enough food just to do their job on
- 1:18:28Speaker 4: the aircraft carrier.
- 1:18:30Speaker 3: Demoralized.
- 1:18:31Speaker 4: Terrible to hear that.
- 1:18:32Speaker 5: All right.
- 1:18:32Speaker 9: 407-916-1041.
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: Text us 77031.
- 1:18:36Speaker 5: It's an aircraft carrier. They got planes flying in and out.
- 1:18:38Speaker 5: Why can't they bring in some food?
- 1:18:40Speaker 4: Here's the problem.
- 1:18:40Speaker 3: Why can't they order pizza?
- 1:18:42Speaker 4: One of the spots that Iran hit back a month
- 1:18:45Speaker 4: ago when they were hitting spots happened to be V-Hub.
- 1:18:50Speaker 4: where U.S. military installations are refueled, restocked, where your letters
- 1:18:54Speaker 4: from the U.S.O. and your family go to. Iran knew
- 1:18:58Speaker 4: what they were doing, and they blew that spot up,
- 1:18:59Speaker 4: which is also the reason why those sailors aren't getting
- 1:19:02Speaker 4: care packages from home.
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: Which is crazy. Which is– it's– Yeah, yeah.
- 1:19:08Speaker 5: Maddening, right?
- 1:19:08Speaker 4: It is maddening because this is a volunteer force. We
- 1:19:11Speaker 4: should be doing everything we can to protect our military
- 1:19:14Speaker 4: men and women. They're out there putting on the uniform voluntarily.
- 1:19:17Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:19:19Speaker 3: All right, 77031, that's how you text us when we
- 1:19:20Speaker 3: come back. I'm going to tell you something about victims
- 1:19:23Speaker 3: of the Charlie Kirk. When the Charlie Kirk shooting went down,
- 1:19:27Speaker 3: the people that were around them have something that's happening,
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: and I'm going to tell you exactly what that is next.
- 1:19:33Speaker 6: You're talking about kinks and fetishes. Deb, I think you've
- 1:19:36Speaker 6: got it backwards. All fetishes are kinks, but not all
- 1:19:40Speaker 6: kinks are fetishes. Because a kink is just something that
- 1:19:44Speaker 6: you like. It might be a weird, out-of-the-norm thing. A
- 1:19:49Speaker 6: fetish is something that is required for you to.
- 1:19:52Speaker 12: Get there.
- 1:19:54Speaker 3: Get there.
- 1:19:55Speaker 6: Finish the job.
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:19:58Speaker 6: Anyway, those are my two cents. Hey guys, this is Don.
- 1:20:04Speaker 9: How you doing, Jack?
- 1:20:06Speaker 6: Yeah, I was a merchant seaman, man.
- 1:20:07Speaker 9: I was out to sea for, you know, most I
- 1:20:10Speaker 9: was out to sea was 25, 30 days, and that
- 1:20:12Speaker 9: was bad enough.
- 1:20:14Speaker 6: Guys, and I shit went crazy for 30 days. Imagine
- 1:20:18Speaker 6: 255 days.
- 1:20:19Speaker 13: Crazy.
- 1:20:20Speaker 6: I feel sorry for the women out there because there's
- 1:20:22Speaker 6: going to be some.
- 1:20:22Speaker 8: Babies being born.
- 1:20:25Speaker 6: It's going to be insane.
- 1:20:26Speaker 7: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 1:20:28Speaker 6: Good luck, guys.
- 1:20:28Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: Going to be some funny walkers in Thailand.
- 1:20:31Speaker 20: Jim and Deb don't want to give me credit for
- 1:20:33Speaker 20: my awesome jokes, but I could see Bradshaw smiling there.
- 1:20:37Speaker 2: I'm watching the YouTube. He was smiling the whole time.
- 1:20:40Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, welcome back to the Jim
- 1:20:46Speaker 3: Culber Show. We're already at 104.1.
- 1:20:48Speaker 5: I'm Jim Devin.
- 1:20:48Speaker 3: Jack are here as well. Don't forget, at 520 or so,
- 1:20:50Speaker 3: we'll be interviewing the punk legend Marky Ramone, calls the show.
- 1:20:56Speaker 3: They're playing Thursday night at the Plaza.
- 1:20:58Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:20:59Speaker 5: So we'll get to talk to Marky here in a
- 1:21:00Speaker 5: few minutes.
- 1:21:01Speaker 3: But it's the music of the who, did you see?
- 1:21:03Speaker 4: Well, no, no, no.
- 1:21:04Speaker 3: I think that's the band opening for them, right? Yeah,
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: I think the band that he's– is that not the case?
- 1:21:12Speaker 5: Oh, maybe.
- 1:21:13Speaker 8: I don't know.
- 1:21:14Speaker 3: He had a number of properties. When I looked today,
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: I saw it said, and a Who tribute band is
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: opening from how I read it.
- 1:21:23Speaker 5: Okay, then I misread what– just by the title, I'm like, okay,
- 1:21:28Speaker 5: it's a tribute to the Who? Yeah.
- 1:21:30Speaker 3: It's Marky Ramone. Yeah, but I think it's Marky Ramone,
- 1:21:32Speaker 3: and then it says, and this band, a tribute to
- 1:21:35Speaker 3: the Who. Got it. So we'll do that for sure.
- 1:21:37Speaker 3: All right, so this is an NPR story. I read
- 1:21:39Speaker 3: this today. And the headline is this. Nearly 200 witnesses
- 1:21:43Speaker 3: to Charlie Kirk's shooting apply for.
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: Oh, it's got to be witnesses in the courtroom?
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: Victim's benefits. Oh, okay. Okay, so I've not ever heard
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: of this before. I've not heard of this in any
- 1:22:01Speaker 3: state anywhere. Of course, this happened in Utah, right?
- 1:22:04Speaker 6: Yeah, Utah.
- 1:22:04Speaker 9: Utah.
- 1:22:05Speaker 3: Um, it says, um, that this girl had never heard
- 1:22:09Speaker 3: of him, whatever. She goes down intense crowd. She'd been
- 1:22:12Speaker 3: only in the spot for a few minutes. And then she,
- 1:22:13Speaker 3: of course she watched him get shot, like from point blank,
- 1:22:16Speaker 3: like a lot of everybody did national televised. I heard
- 1:22:19Speaker 3: it from Sabrina when she was here, she was walking
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: through the hallway and said, Charlie Kirk just got shot
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: because that was being kind of, I guess that was
- 1:22:25Speaker 3: being broadcast or recorded and it made it out on
- 1:22:27Speaker 3: social media immediately. Um, and then on top of that,
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: many other people were standing right there when Charlie Kirk
- 1:22:35Speaker 3: was viciously murdered. But I've never heard of people getting
- 1:22:40Speaker 3: benefits from that. But that's exactly what's going to happen
- 1:22:44Speaker 3: in the state of Utah, that they're going to pay
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: people money because of the trauma that they experienced while
- 1:22:52Speaker 3: they were in that position.
- 1:22:54Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:22:55Speaker 3: It says the victims are going through the Utah Office
- 1:22:58Speaker 3: for Victims of Crime. They'll receive up to 25 mental
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: health sessions. It's unclear how much this will actually cost
- 1:23:04Speaker 3: the state, but in the fiscal year of 2025, they
- 1:23:07Speaker 3: received $ 24. 4 million in federal and state funding and paid
- 1:23:11Speaker 3: almost $ 7 million to victims of crime in Utah. And
- 1:23:16Speaker 3: it says there are certain qualifications for eligibility to have
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: benefits paid for. I.
- 1:23:24Speaker 8: I'm on board.
- 1:23:24Speaker 5: I like the fact that they have, you know, counseling
- 1:23:28Speaker 5: available for any victim of crime. I think, yeah, they
- 1:23:32Speaker 5: should go through that process. I don't know if it's
- 1:23:37Speaker 5: determined that they have lost money. Revenue from this experience?
- 1:23:43Speaker 5: It's just a cash payout?
- 1:23:44Speaker 4: Well, what they're saying is this.
- 1:23:45Speaker 3: It says the girl that we were just talking about,
- 1:23:47Speaker 3: she says she wanted tools to be able to manage
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: the debilitating flashbacks triggered by her environment. Since enrolling in
- 1:23:53Speaker 3: all the benefits, she started eye movement desensitization and reprocessing,
- 1:23:57Speaker 3: a therapy that uses guided eye movements to process traumatic memories.
- 1:24:03Speaker 3: She said it's already helped. So being able to go
- 1:24:05Speaker 3: through each one of these triggers and reground herself as
- 1:24:09Speaker 3: being present in the moment.
- 1:24:11Speaker 5: EMDR therapy has worked a lot for reprogramming the feelings
- 1:24:16Speaker 5: with specific traumatic events.
- 1:24:18Speaker 3: But I don't know of any other state. Have you
- 1:24:20Speaker 3: heard this with any other state doing this? Because, I mean,
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: at that point, like, I mean, what kind of qualifications? Theoretically,
- 1:24:27Speaker 3: you could have seen a really bad car accident qualify
- 1:24:29Speaker 3: for this, right?
- 1:24:30Speaker 4: Yes.
- 1:24:31Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:24:31Speaker 3: I mean, where is it? I guess my point of
- 1:24:33Speaker 3: the story is, where does this come to an end?
- 1:24:35Speaker 3: And how can you make an argument that anybody there
- 1:24:38Speaker 3: that saw that? I mean, do you are if you're
- 1:24:40Speaker 3: 50 feet away, do you qualify?
- 1:24:41Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 1:24:42Speaker 3: If you're 100 feet away, you qualify. How much less
- 1:24:44Speaker 3: is it if I'm 100 feet than 30 feet? I mean,
- 1:24:50Speaker 3: where does this kind of thing come in? And look,
- 1:24:52Speaker 3: I agree with you 100%. Obviously, people who are there
- 1:24:55Speaker 3: were subjected to something obviously nobody should be subjected to,
- 1:25:01Speaker 3: being front and center to watching a human being get murdered.
- 1:25:03Speaker 7: Sure.
- 1:25:04Speaker 3: You should never have to do that. But, I mean,
- 1:25:05Speaker 3: just this weekend in New York, a woman was shot
- 1:25:08Speaker 3: and killed on the sidewalk. approaching two cops with knives
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: in 4D. You could see her get shot in the chest.
- 1:25:15Speaker 3: No problem whatsoever on Twitter. There were people all around that.
- 1:25:18Speaker 3: Do they get it?
- 1:25:19Speaker 4: Yeah, but before that, she had stabbed a 32-year-old Bank
- 1:25:22Speaker 4: of America vice president to death.
- 1:25:24Speaker 3: Yeah, she did.
- 1:25:25Speaker 5: She's actually stabbed two people. Both in the abdomen, one
- 1:25:28Speaker 5: passed and the other one did not, in critical condition,
- 1:25:31Speaker 5: but expected to live. Now, in my opinion, I don't
- 1:25:34Speaker 5: know that that matters. Because, I mean, well, theoretically, it
- 1:25:38Speaker 5: would matter. So the people who saw her stab somebody
- 1:25:40Speaker 5: would qualify. And then they would also qualify because the
- 1:25:43Speaker 5: cops shot her multiple times right in front of everybody, right.
- 1:25:46Speaker 3: In the middle of Times Square.
- 1:25:47Speaker 4: There isn't enough money.
- 1:25:48Speaker 3: By the way, the pedestrian foot traffic, the most in
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: the world, they say at Times Square.
- 1:25:54Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:25:55Speaker 3: The highest foot traffic on planet Earth is in that
- 1:25:57Speaker 3: area in New York City. So, I mean, are multiple
- 1:26:00Speaker 3: people there? If they were there, are they qualified for
- 1:26:03Speaker 3: this kind of therapy, that kind of money? It's just
- 1:26:06Speaker 3: kind of a weird door to open. I mean, I
- 1:26:09Speaker 3: kind of agree with what they're trying to do, but
- 1:26:11Speaker 3: I don't know the parameters or how you even gauge
- 1:26:14Speaker 3: this from event to event. And is it the level
- 1:26:18Speaker 3: of trauma? Do you have to go through the therapy
- 1:26:20Speaker 3: and then a therapist will determine if you should continue
- 1:26:26Speaker 3: to receive benefits?
- 1:26:27Speaker 7: Yes.
- 1:26:28Speaker 9: Yes.
- 1:26:29Speaker 3: It says this guy who's a specialist says that the
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: shooting's mental health impact may take time to emerge, especially
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: among a crowd skewed conservative and male, which means that
- 1:26:39Speaker 3: most of those guys would never kind of take it
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: because they would say that that would make him a
- 1:26:43Speaker 3: P word, right? I'm not taking your therapy.
- 1:26:45Speaker 5: I'm fine.
- 1:26:45Speaker 8: Right.
- 1:26:46Speaker 3: You know, type thing. So they're saying they lean on
- 1:26:48Speaker 3: that a little bit. It says he believes those seeking
- 1:26:50Speaker 3: victim compensation may represent only a fraction of those affected.
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: The number is not a measure of the extent of
- 1:26:56Speaker 3: the harm. It's really just a measure of those who
- 1:26:58Speaker 3: have been able to navigate the legal system to file
- 1:27:01Speaker 3: a claim.
- 1:27:01Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:27:04Speaker 4: Like I said, though, where's the money?
- 1:27:06Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:27:07Speaker 4: And who doles it out?
- 1:27:08Speaker 3: Federal grants. It says right there in the beginning. It's
- 1:27:10Speaker 3: a federal and state grant. So it's federal money. It's
- 1:27:12Speaker 3: taxpayer money.
- 1:27:15Speaker 4: But apparently only Utah is getting to enjoy it.
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: The Utah Office for Victims of Crime Detector Shailene Ritchie
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: said in the days following the shooting, at least 500
- 1:27:24Speaker 3: people approached her office seeking compensations for things like mental
- 1:27:28Speaker 3: health counseling. So far, 173 actually applied for those benefits.
- 1:27:34Speaker 3: We have to determine– what we have to determine is
- 1:27:36Speaker 3: a zone of danger for our benefits. I would guess
- 1:27:40Speaker 3: that's the most important thing you need to figure out.
- 1:27:42Speaker 3: How far were you away? So it may affect someone
- 1:27:47Speaker 3: a lot more greatly who is 50 feet away than
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: someone who is 5 feet away. They may be more
- 1:27:52Speaker 3: traumatized by it and whether it's– you know uh you
- 1:27:56Speaker 3: know not being able to sleep or it affects the
- 1:27:59Speaker 3: you know panic attacks or however it may affect them
- 1:28:02Speaker 3: yeah yeah but the distance you know it really depends
- 1:28:06Speaker 3: on the person does it and doesn't it yeah well
- 1:28:08Speaker 3: i kind of and theoretically would would first responders also
- 1:28:11Speaker 3: be have access to this or would that be covered
- 1:28:13Speaker 3: under their job description i.
- 1:28:15Speaker 4: Would hope that would be underneath their job.
- 1:28:17Speaker 3: Like the cops and the forensic guys who had to
- 1:28:19Speaker 3: respond to pulse You're walking to a room where there's
- 1:28:21Speaker 3: 48 dead people laying around.
- 1:28:23Speaker 4: Paramedics.
- 1:28:24Speaker 5: Paramedics.
- 1:28:24Speaker 3: I mean, do they have that? Somebody said here that
- 1:28:27Speaker 3: many states have victim compensation funds. Florida paid me some
- 1:28:32Speaker 3: out of hours when I was a victim of domestic violence.
- 1:28:34Speaker 3: The perpetrator usually has to reimburse the fund back, though,
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: so I don't know how they're going to do that.
- 1:28:39Speaker 3: It doesn't say anything. about that in this case. I
- 1:28:40Speaker 3: don't think there's any reimbursement in the Utah gig.
- 1:28:43Speaker 15: No.
- 1:28:43Speaker 5: And you say if they're applying for federal grants, that
- 1:28:46Speaker 5: would tell me that every state has an opportunity to
- 1:28:49Speaker 5: take advantage.
- 1:28:50Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe so. I mean, maybe it's up to the
- 1:28:51Speaker 3: governor to request that. It says someone in the front
- 1:28:54Speaker 3: of the crowd who saw everything that day may be
- 1:28:56Speaker 3: entitled to different benefits than someone who is further back
- 1:28:58Speaker 3: with an obstructed view. Then you get into some really
- 1:29:02Speaker 3: nuanced things like what if there's somebody in the crowd
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: was a war veteran who spent time in Iraq or
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: Afghanistan and was dealing with PTSD from that experience, gunshot experience.
- 1:29:13Speaker 3: You're telling me that experience is worth less than somebody
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: who may have been 10 feet closer but had never
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: experienced anything?
- 1:29:19Speaker 5: Yeah, it depends on the person on how something like
- 1:29:23Speaker 5: that would affect them. Some people might not be affected
- 1:29:26Speaker 5: by it at all.
- 1:29:27Speaker 3: Right, and they would not seek that help. If they
- 1:29:29Speaker 3: weren't affected or if they didn't think they were affected.
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: Unless someone's motivated by the financial reward.
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:29:38Speaker 3: It says beyond event attendance, Kirk's death was unique in
- 1:29:41Speaker 3: that it happened on camera with hundreds of angles of
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: the shooting appearing on social media and television just minutes later.
- 1:29:46Speaker 3: This is while her office does not minimize other experiences.
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: She said there are, quote, certain qualifications for eligibility that
- 1:29:54Speaker 3: have benefits paid for. But I would think that would
- 1:29:57Speaker 3: be a very difficult thing to wrangle up and decide
- 1:30:00Speaker 3: who gets what, where, and when because if it's transparent
- 1:30:04Speaker 3: and you find out that the victim A, that was
- 1:30:07Speaker 3: two people in front of you, got health counseling and
- 1:30:11Speaker 3: money and you were two people behind there and you
- 1:30:13Speaker 3: got health counseling but no money.
- 1:30:15Speaker 5: I think it would have to start with therapy and
- 1:30:19Speaker 5: you determine the level of trauma.
- 1:30:21Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:30:23Speaker 5: And if therapy is continued, I think that should be
- 1:30:25Speaker 5: the primary focus of it. And the financial aspect is
- 1:30:30Speaker 5: only if that trauma has negatively affected you being able.
- 1:30:34Speaker 3: To earn a living. Yeah, and that's what they're saying here. Basically,
- 1:30:37Speaker 3: it says because of a certain publicity that victims have
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: to relive that event. You know, if you're on social media,
- 1:30:43Speaker 3: you're just flipping through and you hit a video and
- 1:30:45Speaker 3: it just immediately loads up the video of Charlie Kirk
- 1:30:47Speaker 3: being shot and it doesn't give you an opportunity to
- 1:30:49Speaker 3: scroll past it. I mean, obviously you can see that
- 1:30:51Speaker 3: that would be a scenario. How many people are traumatized
- 1:30:54Speaker 3: by the events of 9-11? I mean, yeah. I mean,
- 1:30:56Speaker 3: like I said, it's like an endless pool. And isn't
- 1:30:58Speaker 3: that subjective in itself? Like what may traumatize you, may
- 1:31:02Speaker 3: not traumatize you. Our Kansas trucker just checked in and said, well,
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: do I get paid if I see, you know, a
- 1:31:06Speaker 3: tractor trailer run over a VW bug with four kids
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: in it? Yeah. Or I drive by that, you know? Interesting, man.
- 1:31:13Speaker 3: And then look at what first responders deal with on
- 1:31:15Speaker 3: a daily basis.
- 1:31:17Speaker 4: But, I mean, our truckers is really– that's a very good– because,
- 1:31:20Speaker 4: I mean, they're seeing– Fatalities, if you're a long-haul trucker,
- 1:31:23Speaker 4: you could see one in Georgia, one in Kentucky, before
- 1:31:26Speaker 4: your shift is even over.
- 1:31:27Speaker 5: Dude, I'm sure they see them one a week. Yeah,
- 1:31:29Speaker 5: but they also get free sex shows. How many times
- 1:31:32Speaker 5: do they see stuff going on?
- 1:31:34Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:31:35Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:31:36Speaker 3: Your water guy's not getting flashed. Yeah, no, it's coming
- 1:31:38Speaker 3: out in the wash.
- 1:31:39Speaker 4: I don't know. Talk to your water guy.
- 1:31:40Speaker 5: All right, 407-916-1041.
- 1:31:41Speaker 8: Text 77031.
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: Marky Ramone up next. Today at 620 on The Jim
- 1:31:43Speaker 3: Colbert Show. All right, welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show.
- 1:31:51Speaker 3: We're already at 104.1. I am Jim. There's Deb.
- 1:31:54Speaker 7: Hello.
- 1:31:55Speaker 3: Jack is here as well. What's up?
- 1:31:56Speaker 5: Man, it's rare that you get to actually talk to
- 1:31:59Speaker 5: a freaking legend of anything.
- 1:32:01Speaker 3: But, man, we get it right now. And, actually, you
- 1:32:03Speaker 3: can see him live coming up Thursday night at Plaza.
- 1:32:06Speaker 3: You guys get up good and loud for Mr. Marky Ramone.
- 1:32:09Speaker 5: What do you think?
- 1:32:12Speaker 6: Yay!
- 1:32:12Speaker 11: Woo-hoo!
- 1:32:12Speaker 3: Marky, what's up, buddy? How you doing?
- 1:32:15Speaker 8: I'm in my hotel room.
- 1:32:17Speaker 9: And my Ramones shorts, they used to be long. My
- 1:32:22Speaker 9: pants used to be long, not his shorts. They disintegrated.
- 1:32:28Speaker 3: Florida heat will do that to you.
- 1:32:30Speaker 4: Yeah, and the humidity.
- 1:32:31Speaker 3: You've been doing this quite a while, Marky. I mean,
- 1:32:34Speaker 3: how do you still get that energy up to go
- 1:32:36Speaker 3: out and play live shows, especially with the energy that
- 1:32:38Speaker 3: you guys have always brought to the stage?
- 1:32:41Speaker 8: Well, you take care of yourself. I never smoked cigarettes.
- 1:32:47Speaker 9: I didn't have a drink for 35 years, and I
- 1:32:51Speaker 9: go to the studio about three times a week on
- 1:32:55Speaker 9: my own, and I like to ride my bike, and
- 1:32:59Speaker 9: it's that simple.
- 1:33:01Speaker 3: Very cool.
- 1:33:02Speaker 5: You take good care of yourself.
- 1:33:03Speaker 3: That's awesome. What can people expect from the show coming
- 1:33:05Speaker 3: up Thursday night, Marky?
- 1:33:06Speaker 9: 35 songs, Ramones classics, and a good time, a lot
- 1:33:12Speaker 9: of energy. One, two, three, four into each song. No
- 1:33:19Speaker 9: discussions about the weather, your grandmother.
- 1:33:25Speaker 8: It's all about the music.
- 1:33:27Speaker 3: Very cool. That's really unique. I've got to tell you,
- 1:33:30Speaker 3: it's kind of interesting for me because I remember talking
- 1:33:33Speaker 3: to somebody else about this years ago. So you guys,
- 1:33:36Speaker 3: obviously you cut your teeth. You're one of the, if
- 1:33:39Speaker 3: not the most defined punk band of America's history, spurning
- 1:33:43Speaker 3: on many other bands who looked at you guys for
- 1:33:46Speaker 3: inspiration as you broke every single rule in music. How
- 1:33:49Speaker 3: did you, as Mark and the rest of the guys,
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: how did you guys keep that punk vibe as you
- 1:33:54Speaker 3: got richer and richer?
- 1:33:57Speaker 8: Well, you've got to remember where you came from.
- 1:34:01Speaker 9: You've got to look back and go, all the hard
- 1:34:04Speaker 9: work you did, all the sweat, taking the equipment on
- 1:34:08Speaker 9: the trains, and then going to CBGB's, playing, and then
- 1:34:14Speaker 9: going back and then going to Max's Kansas City. And,
- 1:34:19Speaker 9: you know, you just that's the attitude. That's the New
- 1:34:22Speaker 9: York City attitude. You know, I was I grew up
- 1:34:27Speaker 9: in Brooklyn.
- 1:34:28Speaker 8: I'm flat.
- 1:34:29Speaker 9: Your flaps are shadowing you. And it was either being
- 1:34:32Speaker 9: in a gang or being a band. So I was
- 1:34:36Speaker 9: in other bands before the Ramones.
- 1:34:39Speaker 8: But, you know, it just that's the way it worked.
- 1:34:42Speaker 8: That's bummed.
- 1:34:44Speaker 4: Well, Marky, I was wondering, what is it that keeps
- 1:34:47Speaker 4: you getting up on stage right now? Having done it
- 1:34:50Speaker 4: for decades now, is it the inspiration to other musicians?
- 1:34:54Speaker 4: Is it just playing the music that's always made you happy?
- 1:34:57Speaker 4: What is the motivation this many years later?
- 1:35:00Speaker 8: Well, the songs are too good not to be played.
- 1:35:03Speaker 7: True.
- 1:35:04Speaker 9: Unfortunately, Johnny and Joey D passed away. They were way
- 1:35:09Speaker 9: too young. And the repertoire that we do have is huge.
- 1:35:14Speaker 9: So I enjoy it, and there's a whole new generation
- 1:35:19Speaker 9: of Ramones fans that want to hear these songs. So
- 1:35:24Speaker 9: I go all around the world and I do it,
- 1:35:27Speaker 9: and I enjoy it. I get to see other cities and,
- 1:35:32Speaker 9: of course, other countries. And you get new friends and fans,
- 1:35:37Speaker 9: and that's what I like.
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: Marky, you joined the Ramones in 78. How did that
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: come about?
- 1:35:45Speaker 5: I mean, were you in the neighborhood with these guys,
- 1:35:47Speaker 5: or how did you get the gig as drummer in
- 1:35:50Speaker 5: the Ramones?
- 1:35:51Speaker 8: Well, I was with Richard Hell in the Voidoids, and
- 1:35:54Speaker 8: we toured with The Clash in England.
- 1:35:59Speaker 9: And then when we got back, Richard didn't want to
- 1:36:01Speaker 9: tour anymore. So Tommy and Deedee Ramone came up to
- 1:36:06Speaker 9: me at the bar at CBGB's, And they wanted to
- 1:36:10Speaker 9: know if I would join the Ramones because Tommy.
- 1:36:13Speaker 8: Wanted to produce. He didn't want to play anymore.
- 1:36:17Speaker 9: So I went to a little rehearsal and we did three,
- 1:36:22Speaker 9: four songs and it worked. But we all knew each
- 1:36:26Speaker 9: other because CBGB's was our home, along with Blondie, Talking Heads,
- 1:36:31Speaker 9: Patti Smith, The Heartbreakers, The New York Dolls. So we
- 1:36:36Speaker 9: all knew each other.
- 1:36:38Speaker 4: Yeah, that's interesting.
- 1:36:39Speaker 3: By the way, talking to Marquee Ramone, they're going to
- 1:36:41Speaker 3: be Thursday night at Platt's if you want to go
- 1:36:42Speaker 3: check them out. And they're with a huge, a Who
- 1:36:45Speaker 3: tribute band that sounds fun as well. So, you know,
- 1:36:48Speaker 3: I was very interested as I was looking at the
- 1:36:49Speaker 3: timeline of the Ramones, something kind of unique popped up
- 1:36:52Speaker 3: as you guys are popping off like Rock and Roll
- 1:36:54Speaker 3: High School. I want to be sedated.
- 1:36:56Speaker 5: You guys couldn't have been hotter at that point was
- 1:36:58Speaker 5: the same exact time that the disco movement had hit
- 1:37:02Speaker 5: New York. What was that like for you guys in
- 1:37:04Speaker 5: the punk movement, sharing the same space as like the
- 1:37:07Speaker 5: disco movement that was kind of coming into play? Was
- 1:37:09Speaker 5: that kind of a weird thing or was it just
- 1:37:11Speaker 5: part of that New York music scene that everybody liked
- 1:37:14Speaker 5: each other?
- 1:37:15Speaker 8: Well, there was room for everybody. New York's big.
- 1:37:18Speaker 9: And, you know, it was punk and there was disco,
- 1:37:22Speaker 9: but disco was out already. I think disco came around
- 1:37:27Speaker 9: in 73, 74, around that time. And then the punk
- 1:37:34Speaker 9: scene started in late 74, early 75. So there was
- 1:37:40Speaker 9: something for everybody. We were aware of what the punk
- 1:37:47Speaker 9: scene was doing and we were aware.
- 1:37:50Speaker 8: Of the disco scene.
- 1:37:53Speaker 9: So it was just fun and it was a choice.
- 1:37:58Speaker 9: People had choices.
- 1:38:00Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:38:01Speaker 3: I would think that would be amazing, dude.
- 1:38:02Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:38:02Speaker 3: To be able to go see great punk bands in
- 1:38:05Speaker 3: one show, literally leave that club, go to another club
- 1:38:07Speaker 3: right down the street and see Blondie or the Talking
- 1:38:11Speaker 3: Heads or a cool band like that.
- 1:38:13Speaker 5: That would have been the most incredible thing in the world.
- 1:38:16Speaker 9: Yeah, we were out every night at 3, 4 in
- 1:38:18Speaker 9: the morning.
- 1:38:19Speaker 2: Oh, nice.
- 1:38:20Speaker 9: And we were all at CBGB's, but eventually we all
- 1:38:23Speaker 9: got bigger, so we couldn't play CBGBs anymore. So we
- 1:38:28Speaker 9: started separating and going to places on our.
- 1:38:33Speaker 8: Own to do our own shows. We'd go to England,
- 1:38:36Speaker 8: we'd go.
- 1:38:37Speaker 9: To places like Spain, France, Germany, Ireland, everywhere.
- 1:38:44Speaker 8: You name it, Argentina, Brazil, Chile. every state in the
- 1:38:49Speaker 8: United States.
- 1:38:51Speaker 9: So, you know, we had to because we had to
- 1:38:56Speaker 9: promote our albums.
- 1:38:58Speaker 8: And that's the way it goes.
- 1:39:00Speaker 9: You have an album you have to tour on.
- 1:39:02Speaker 5: Marky, you're a New York band, but outside of the States,
- 1:39:06Speaker 5: where are the Ramones? Where do you think the best
- 1:39:09Speaker 5: shows were? Or where were you most well-received outside of
- 1:39:13Speaker 5: the U.S.? That's exactly what I was just thinking.
- 1:39:15Speaker 3: It's got to be England, right?
- 1:39:18Speaker 8: All of South America.
- 1:39:19Speaker 5: Really?
- 1:39:20Speaker 8: Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Chile, and Japan, and Mexico. Let's see,
- 1:39:32Speaker 8: what else?
- 1:39:34Speaker 2: My own band.
- 1:39:36Speaker 8: I went to Vietnam. I couldn't believe it. We went
- 1:39:39Speaker 8: to China. They love punk. We were in China.
- 1:39:47Speaker 9: And we were in the hotel, and we had to
- 1:39:50Speaker 9: go in front of a board who had to listen
- 1:39:54Speaker 9: to our lyrics first before they would allow us to play.
- 1:39:59Speaker 8: That's how it was.
- 1:40:01Speaker 9: So luckily, we took out some of the songs that
- 1:40:05Speaker 9: weren't too controversial, you know, with a negativity to it.
- 1:40:11Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah. And then they started tapping along and liking it.
- 1:40:16Speaker 21: So, yeah.
- 1:40:17Speaker 8: It's that infectious.
- 1:40:18Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:40:19Speaker 3: I would have thought it would be in England for
- 1:40:20Speaker 3: sure with like the sex pistols, that entire, the clash,
- 1:40:23Speaker 3: that entire.
- 1:40:25Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 1:40:25Speaker 9: We turned the, uh, English, uh, scene on because when
- 1:40:29Speaker 9: they went there the first time, it.
- 1:40:32Speaker 8: Ignited their punk scene.
- 1:40:34Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:40:35Speaker 9: They, they were into a different thing. They were in a, um,
- 1:40:39Speaker 9: they were into the genre called pub rock. Uh, So
- 1:40:44Speaker 9: when the Ramones went there, everybody started wearing leather jackets, sneakers, jeans.
- 1:40:48Speaker 9: They had the, uh, uh, pins on their leather jackets. And,
- 1:40:53Speaker 9: you know, there was some good bands. I was friends
- 1:40:55Speaker 9: with the Clash. Uh, I was good friends with Sid Vicious.
- 1:40:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:41:00Speaker 14: Wow.
- 1:41:00Speaker 8: And, um, you know, I mean, uh, it, it's like
- 1:41:04Speaker 8: when the Beatles came to America.
- 1:41:06Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 1:41:06Speaker 9: All these bands started, you know, looking like the Beatles
- 1:41:10Speaker 9: and playing like the Beatles and, But that's the kind
- 1:41:16Speaker 9: of way I can describe it.
- 1:41:18Speaker 3: Yeah, talking to Marky Ramone, they're going to be at
- 1:41:20Speaker 3: the Plaza live this Thursday night. The show is at
- 1:41:23Speaker 3: 8 o'clock. Grab your tickets at plazaliveorlando.org, I believe it is.
- 1:41:27Speaker 3: You can check it out. They're going to have an
- 1:41:29Speaker 3: opening band. It's a Who tribute band, which is kind
- 1:41:31Speaker 3: of cool as well. You just mentioned earlier, Marky, that
- 1:41:34Speaker 3: you've been sober for 35 years. And, of course, we
- 1:41:36Speaker 3: know that your battle with alcohol is really what caused
- 1:41:39Speaker 3: you to leave the Ramones and then get sober and
- 1:41:41Speaker 3: then come back to the Ramones. And you're, you have
- 1:41:43Speaker 3: a unique perspective here because a lot of people, once
- 1:41:46Speaker 3: they wind up leaving a band because of something like that, you're,
- 1:41:49Speaker 3: they're not welcome back. You know, they burned so many bridges.
- 1:41:51Speaker 3: It wasn't that case. So what has been, what's the
- 1:41:54Speaker 3: rock and roll lifestyle for you been like pre and
- 1:41:57Speaker 3: post sobriety?
- 1:42:00Speaker 6: Great.
- 1:42:01Speaker 9: Uh, you, uh, you don't have to wake up with
- 1:42:04Speaker 9: a hangover. You're physically in good shape. Uh, you can, um,
- 1:42:12Speaker 9: You don't have to worry about anything, about what you
- 1:42:16Speaker 9: did the night before. You don't have to have people
- 1:42:19Speaker 9: telling you what you did because you don't remember. And,
- 1:42:23Speaker 9: you know, Rodney Dangerfield tells a pretty funny joke. He goes,
- 1:42:29Speaker 9: I was so drunk, I got into a car and
- 1:42:33Speaker 9: I parked it, but I don't remember the car that
- 1:42:36Speaker 9: I drove to the car.
- 1:42:38Speaker 8: It's another word.
- 1:42:39Speaker 9: You know, so it was kind of almost like that.
- 1:42:43Speaker 9: I kind of caught myself. I didn't start seeing the things, but,
- 1:42:50Speaker 9: you know, I didn't have the DTs and stuff like that.
- 1:42:52Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:42:53Speaker 9: But I said to myself, what's more important, doing your thing,
- 1:43:00Speaker 9: your career, your job, or continue to drink?
- 1:43:05Speaker 8: So, you know.
- 1:43:07Speaker 9: Your career in life is very important in what you do.
- 1:43:12Speaker 9: And you have to maintain a very high professionalism.
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: Well, buddy, listen, I can't thank you enough for giving
- 1:43:20Speaker 3: us a quick call and telling us some great stories
- 1:43:22Speaker 3: about this. I mean, they're going to be at Thursday
- 1:43:24Speaker 3: night at Plaza Live right down there in downtown Orlando.
- 1:43:26Speaker 3: Grab your tickets at plazaliveorlando.org and see a legend. Marky,
- 1:43:30Speaker 3: thank you so much.
- 1:43:31Speaker 5: Good laugh for Marky. What do you say, guys?
- 1:43:32Speaker 4: Hey!
- 1:43:35Speaker 3: Take care, buddy. Always good seeing you, man. You got it, buddy.
- 1:43:38Speaker 3: All right. 407-916-1041. Text us at 77031. Marky Ramone, dude.
- 1:43:44Speaker 3: That's a legendary scenario there, buddy. No kidding.
- 1:43:46Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:43:47Speaker 8: Pretty cool.
- 1:43:47Speaker 4: I mean, especially when you find out that they were
- 1:43:49Speaker 4: the ones that kicked off the punk rock scene in England.
- 1:43:52Speaker 4: You always thought it was the other way around.
- 1:43:56Speaker 5: Are we sure he's from New York, though? Yeah.
- 1:43:59Speaker 3: How many times did he say 2-3-3-4? How many times
- 1:44:02Speaker 3: did you have to bite your tongue? Yeah, yeah.
- 1:44:04Speaker 9: 3-4-2-3.
- 1:44:05Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:44:06Speaker 3: Super cool guy, man. That's great. Yeah, yeah. It's exactly
- 1:44:09Speaker 3: what I thought Marky Ramone would be like.
- 1:44:11Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:44:11Speaker 3: A little demure, a little bit like, yeah, this is
- 1:44:13Speaker 3: what it is.
- 1:44:13Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 1:44:14Speaker 5: And his thing is like, what are you going to
- 1:44:15Speaker 5: see tonight at a Ramone show?
- 1:44:17Speaker 12: One, two, three, four.
- 1:44:18Speaker 5: Hit it.
- 1:44:19Speaker 4: One, two, three, four.
- 1:44:20Speaker 3: And it's funny when he said like 35 songs. Yeah,
- 1:44:22Speaker 3: because they're all like two and a half minutes long.
- 1:44:27Speaker 5: They can play their greatest hits as like one side
- 1:44:29Speaker 5: of another record.
- 1:44:31Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 1:44:31Speaker 3: Yeah, but thanks, Mark. We appreciate that very much. Mark
- 1:44:33Speaker 3: and Ramon. checking in probably didn't have to do this.
- 1:44:36Speaker 3: I'm sure they're selling tickets like crazy. I mean, the
- 1:44:37Speaker 3: Ramones will draw them from everywhere just to be in
- 1:44:40Speaker 3: a room with one of those dudes and have the opportunity.
- 1:44:43Speaker 3: And if you ever read the history of it, it
- 1:44:44Speaker 3: is kind of wild how that whole thing was for
- 1:44:47Speaker 3: the longest time. And they did, they did the rock
- 1:44:49Speaker 3: and roll high school and release. I wanted to be
- 1:44:51Speaker 3: sedated in the same year. I think it was 78
- 1:44:54Speaker 3: or 79 when they made that movie.
- 1:44:55Speaker 4: But imagine being at CBGB's in the heart of New
- 1:44:59Speaker 4: York City.
- 1:45:00Speaker 3: And you see those dudes roll in.
- 1:45:01Speaker 4: And there's Blondie. Yeah, Talking Heads.
- 1:45:04Speaker 3: Yeah, Talking Heads.
- 1:45:05Speaker 4: You know, just hanging out.
- 1:45:06Speaker 3: Andy Warhol.
- 1:45:07Speaker 17: Yeah.
- 1:45:08Speaker 3: Yeah, all those old great bands from those days, you know,
- 1:45:10Speaker 3: just hanging. The other thing that was kind of funny,
- 1:45:12Speaker 3: I wasn't going to bring it up because it doesn't
- 1:45:14Speaker 3: really mean anything, but They did know each other well. Actually,
- 1:45:17Speaker 3: you know who Clem Burke is? Do you happen to
- 1:45:19Speaker 3: know who that musician is?
- 1:45:20Speaker 4: The name sounds very familiar.
- 1:45:22Speaker 3: He was the drummer for Blondie. And at one point,
- 1:45:25Speaker 3: Clem Burke was in the Ramones as Elvis Ramones.
- 1:45:30Speaker 6: Oh, wow.
- 1:45:30Speaker 3: He played two shows, and they booted his ass.
- 1:45:33Speaker 7: Really?
- 1:45:33Speaker 3: Yeah, but he was in. When all this stuff was
- 1:45:35Speaker 3: happening with Marky, when he got hammered and did a
- 1:45:37Speaker 3: bunch of stuff, and they basically threw him out of
- 1:45:38Speaker 3: the band for being a drunk, and he went off
- 1:45:41Speaker 3: and got his stuff together. But in that time, Clem Burke,
- 1:45:45Speaker 3: who was the drummer for Blondie, came in and played
- 1:45:48Speaker 3: a couple of shows, and this other guy wound up
- 1:45:49Speaker 3: being the other member that kind of held on until
- 1:45:52Speaker 3: Marky came back. But just a small bit of trivia there.
- 1:45:55Speaker 3: What a coincidence that they all have the same last name. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:45:58Speaker 3: it's wild.
- 1:45:59Speaker 4: I know, isn't it?
- 1:45:59Speaker 5: They must have searched far and wide. Through all five boroughs.
- 1:46:04Speaker 5: Do you remember where Flatbush is? I mean, you remember
- 1:46:07Speaker 5: where that is and stuff?
- 1:46:07Speaker 3: Yeah, I know of it. I never hung out there.
- 1:46:11Speaker 3: Somebody said there was an amusement park there at one time.
- 1:46:13Speaker 3: He wanted me to ask if he'd ever hung out
- 1:46:14Speaker 3: at that amusement park.
- 1:46:16Speaker 9: Oh, yeah.
- 1:46:16Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:46:17Speaker 8: All right, 407-916-1041.
- 1:46:17Speaker 3: Text us, 77031. Load them up, guys. It's time for trivia.
- 1:46:18Speaker 3: We'll do that next. Point one.
- 1:46:26Speaker 2: Jim Colbert Show.
- 1:46:27Speaker 11: Mason, check it in. You have my shop. On my ship,
- 1:46:31Speaker 11: saw the news about Abraham Lincoln pulling into Thailand. We
- 1:46:36Speaker 11: all kind of laughed. There's going to be a lot
- 1:46:37Speaker 11: of NJPs, as we call them, non-judicial punishments going on
- 1:46:42Speaker 11: after this. But fun fact, my ship was actually banned
- 1:46:46Speaker 11: after our last deployment from Thailand. The ship can never
- 1:46:51Speaker 11: go back to Thailand because of how rowdy we got.
- 1:46:54Speaker 9: Mm-hmm.
- 1:46:57Speaker 17: I think it's possible that in this beautiful, uncomfortable realm
- 1:47:03Speaker 17: we all find ourselves in, that trauma is the cohesive
- 1:47:07Speaker 17: factor to our dilemma. And if we can survive it,
- 1:47:13Speaker 17: I mean, we're just rolling around in trauma constantly. Turn
- 1:47:17Speaker 17: on TV, there's a lion eating a bunny rabbit. Sit
- 1:47:21Speaker 17: down at a ballgame, there's a guy putting ketchup on
- 1:47:23Speaker 17: a hot dog.
- 1:47:24Speaker 7: Oh, boy.
- 1:47:24Speaker 6: I mean, it's trauma everywhere. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:47:27Speaker 2: You go, Sniper.
- 1:47:28Speaker 17: And the next thing you know, we're going to have
- 1:47:30Speaker 17: Intent telling their overjoyed mothers for pooping on them at birth.
- 1:47:36Speaker 17: That's trauma, and that's where we're heading.
- 1:47:39Speaker 2: What is going on with her?
- 1:47:40Speaker 3: I haven't heard from her in three weeks, and she
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: drops those two bombs.
- 1:47:43Speaker 14: I love it.
- 1:47:44Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 1:47:44Speaker 2: All right.
- 1:47:44Speaker 3: Welcome back, by the way. Good to hear from you.

- 1:49:44Speaker 4: Four answers.
- 1:49:45Speaker 3: One of these answers is not true.
- 1:49:47Speaker 5: What? I made it up. I'm trying to fool you.
- 1:49:49Speaker 6: Damn.

- 1:49:59Speaker 3: rock band U2 releases their debut album EP, U2-3. Here
- 1:50:04Speaker 3: are three fun facts about U2 and one lie in
- 1:50:07Speaker 3: the name of love.
- 1:50:08Speaker 9: Aw.
- 1:50:09Speaker 3: All right, buddy, we're talking about the band U2. Which
- 1:50:11Speaker 3: one of these is not true? Number one, U2 has
- 1:50:14Speaker 3: won 22 Grammy Awards, making them the winningest band in
- 1:50:18Speaker 3: Grammy history. Number two, before becoming U2, the band performed
- 1:50:22Speaker 3: under two other names, Feedback and The Hype. Number three,
- 1:50:26Speaker 3: according to UK funeral directors, With or Without You is
- 1:50:29Speaker 3: a top ten request at funeral services. Or lastly, guitar
- 1:50:33Speaker 3: player The Edge is married to former Irish Prime Minister
- 1:50:37Speaker 3: Jarrett Fitzgerald's daughter.
- 1:50:38Speaker 10: Oof.
- 1:50:41Speaker 5: Which one of those is a lie?
- 1:50:42Speaker 10: Oof.
- 1:50:44Speaker 22: Maybe number two?
- 1:50:46Speaker 3: No, that's absolutely true. Before Becoming U2, the band did
- 1:50:49Speaker 3: perform under two other names. Those were Feedback and The Hype.
- 1:50:53Speaker 4: Wow, you made it, Puzzle Master.
- 1:50:55Speaker 3: I made it past that one. Okay, very good. All right, Deborah, two, three, four,
- 1:51:01Speaker 3: or five?
- 1:51:02Speaker 4: Let's go two.
- 1:51:03Speaker 3: Two sounds good. That is Becky. Becky, how are you?
- 1:51:06Speaker 3: I'm good.
- 1:51:07Speaker 10: How are you?
- 1:51:07Speaker 3: Doing good, Becky. We're talking about the band U2. Which
- 1:51:10Speaker 3: one of these isn't true? Number one, U2 has won
- 1:51:12Speaker 3: 22 Grammys, making them the winningest band in Grammy history.
- 1:51:15Speaker 3: Number two, according to UK funeral directors, With or Without
- 1:51:18Speaker 3: You is a top ten request at funeral services, or
- 1:51:21Speaker 3: guitar player The Edge is married to former Irish Prime
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: Minister Garrett Fitzgerald's daughter. And number one. No, that's absolutely true.
- 1:51:30Speaker 3: U2 is the winningest band in Grammy history with 22 Grammys.
- 1:51:36Speaker 16: Wow.
- 1:51:36Speaker 3: That is crazy. Well, they've been around for a very
- 1:51:38Speaker 3: long time, guys. Yeah, I know. Since the 78 or 79?
- 1:51:41Speaker 5: I remember Bono making fun of Phil Collins on the
- 1:51:45Speaker 5: Grammy stage. Oh, yeah.
- 1:51:46Speaker 3: Because, you know, my mom loves your music kind of deal.
- 1:51:51Speaker 3: Now he's the old guy.
- 1:51:53Speaker 4: I know, seriously.
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: Three, four, or five?
- 1:51:55Speaker 4: We're going to go four.
- 1:51:55Speaker 3: Four sounds good. That is James. James, how are you?
- 1:51:59Speaker 5: I'm doing great.
- 1:51:59Speaker 6: How about you guys?
- 1:52:00Speaker 3: Doing good, brother. Thanks for calling. We appreciate you playing today.
- 1:52:02Speaker 3: You got a 50-50 shot. We're talking about the band U2.
- 1:52:05Speaker 3: Which one of these isn't true? Number one, according to
- 1:52:07Speaker 3: UK funeral directors, With or Without You is a top
- 1:52:10Speaker 3: ten request at funeral services. Or lastly, guitar player The
- 1:52:14Speaker 3: Edge is married to former Irish Prime Minister Garrett Fitzgerald's daughter.
- 1:52:19Speaker 5: I'm going to go with the last one. That's the one, buddy.
- 1:52:21Speaker 9: You're right.
- 1:52:24Speaker 3: I'm going to put you on hold, James.
- 1:52:26Speaker 5: Have yourself a fine time, buddy. You are a winner
- 1:52:28Speaker 5: at today's trivia. That is not true.
- 1:52:31Speaker 3: But the other one is, according to UK funeral directors,
- 1:52:33Speaker 3: With or Without You is a top ten request at
- 1:52:36Speaker 3: funeral services.
- 1:52:37Speaker 4: Man, those wacky... With.
- 1:52:39Speaker 8: Or without you.
- 1:52:40Speaker 5: It's without you.
- 1:52:41Speaker 4: She's right there. It's without you. There's no question. It's
- 1:52:46Speaker 4: not with. I was with you.
- 1:52:47Speaker 3: Now I'm without you.
- 1:52:49Speaker 5: A few other things before we get to the top
- 1:52:51Speaker 5: of the hour. Singer Bono's real name is? Reginald.
- 1:52:56Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny. Paul Hewson. You'll never get it. But
- 1:52:59Speaker 3: the interesting part of that name is this. How do
- 1:53:01Speaker 3: you think he got the name Bono? Where did Bono
- 1:53:03Speaker 3: come from? It was the name of a candy that
- 1:53:08Speaker 3: he liked. You know what?
- 1:53:08Speaker 5: That's funny. It's not that, but it is the name
- 1:53:11Speaker 5: of something else.
- 1:53:12Speaker 6: A beer?
- 1:53:13Speaker 3: A music store. In Ireland, there was a music store
- 1:53:17Speaker 3: called Bonovox, and Bonovox translated means good voice, so he
- 1:53:23Speaker 3: just shortened it to Bono. Oh, wow. Yeah, there you go.
- 1:53:26Speaker 3: Bono and drummer Larry Mullen are married to their high
- 1:53:28Speaker 3: school sweethearts.
- 1:53:29Speaker 8: Yep.
- 1:53:30Speaker 3: How crazy is that?
- 1:53:31Speaker 6: Oh.
- 1:53:31Speaker 5: Two guys in that band, never been with it, just
- 1:53:34Speaker 5: a high school sweetheart, that's it.
- 1:53:35Speaker 3: That's it. Plowing through. U2 is one of the few
- 1:53:37Speaker 3: bands that have had a number one album in how
- 1:53:39Speaker 3: many decades?
- 1:53:41Speaker 4: Four.
- 1:53:41Speaker 3: Four is the answer.
- 1:53:42Speaker 4: No!
- 1:53:43Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:53:44Speaker 3: And then lastly, the.
- 1:53:45Speaker 5: Television show One Tree Hill is named after the U2
- 1:53:48Speaker 5: song from the album The Joshua Tree.
- 1:53:51Speaker 7: Really?
- 1:53:51Speaker 3: Yeah, One Tree Hill is the song off that record,
- 1:53:53Speaker 3: and that's what they used to name the TV show
- 1:53:56Speaker 3: One Tree Hill.
- 1:53:57Speaker 4: All right.
- 1:53:57Speaker 2: There you go.
- 1:53:58Speaker 4: I had no idea.
- 1:53:59Speaker 3: I think he was one of the, if I remember right,
- 1:54:01Speaker 3: wasn't he one of the first musicians to be worth
- 1:54:03Speaker 3: a billion dollars? A billion? Yeah, I think he was
- 1:54:07Speaker 3: one of the first guys to be a billionaire as
- 1:54:10Speaker 3: a rock singer. I believe so. They are stinky rich.
- 1:54:14Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:54:14Speaker 3: They are a really, really loaded band. All right, 407-916-1041.
- 1:54:18Speaker 3: Text us at 77031. We do have Scott Brown coming
- 1:54:22Speaker 3: up at the top, or excuse me, in the hour.
- 1:54:24Speaker 3: But I found something about eating that I find interesting.
- 1:54:27Speaker 3: I want to ask you guys if you do this.
- 1:54:29Speaker 3: I'll do that next.
- 1:54:36Speaker 6: Hey, as an.
- 1:54:36Speaker 4: Empty traffic investigator, I had to go through the pockets
- 1:54:40Speaker 4: of a man Sergeant who had lost his head.
- 1:54:45Speaker 6: He was headless. 3-8-4 Christmas.
- 1:54:48Speaker 4: As of then, in 03, on.
- 1:54:51Speaker 6: I-80, I saw a cancer blood. A woman hit the
- 1:54:54Speaker 6: rear end of my truck. We pulled over. She walked
- 1:54:58Speaker 6: to the side of my truck.
- 1:55:00Speaker 5: Another truck came by and she carpooled down the road
- 1:55:02Speaker 5: and got hit again.
- 1:55:04Speaker 19: Yeah, that's it.
- 1:55:06Speaker 10: Damn.
- 1:55:07Speaker 5: No biggie. That could be trauma.
- 1:55:09Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:55:11Speaker 21: Hey, guys, for anybody that's playing trivia, just.
- 1:55:14Speaker 5: A rule of thumb.
- 1:55:15Speaker 21: 100% of the time, it's 50% of the time right.
- 1:55:19Speaker 21: The one that Jimmy messes up and doesn't say right
- 1:55:23Speaker 21: is the one that's wrong.
- 1:55:26Speaker 4: Oh, is that a tell?
- 1:55:27Speaker 3: So that time it definitely was. And I thought for
- 1:55:30Speaker 3: sure when I got the last one wrong, when I
- 1:55:32Speaker 3: read it wrong the first time because there was a
- 1:55:33Speaker 3: lot at the end there.
- 1:55:34Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:55:35Speaker 3: I thought for sure he was going to guess it.
- 1:55:36Speaker 3: And that's why, Debra, if you'll go back and listen,
- 1:55:37Speaker 3: that's why she says you got past that one, Puzzle Master,
- 1:55:41Speaker 3: because she knows most people know that if I mess
- 1:55:43Speaker 3: up saying it, that is the wrong one. I'm still
- 1:55:46Speaker 3: trying to do the math on this one.
- 1:55:48Speaker 21: Hey, guys, for anybody that's playing trivia, just.
- 1:55:51Speaker 11: A rule of thumb.
- 1:55:52Speaker 21: 100% of the time, it's 50% of the time right.
- 1:55:57Speaker 8: The one that Jimmy messes.
- 1:55:58Speaker 5: Up and doesn't say right is the one that's wrong.
- 1:56:01Speaker 5: I think he's doing an anchorman kind of thing there.
- 1:56:03Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:56:03Speaker 3: All right, welcome back.
- 1:56:04Speaker 15: I'm Jim.
- 1:56:05Speaker 3: There's Deb.
- 1:56:05Speaker 4: Hello.
- 1:56:06Speaker 3: Jack is here as well.
- 1:56:07Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: Let me ask you guys a quick question. Great story
- 1:56:11Speaker 3: in the BBC today about this. Really, really interesting story
- 1:56:14Speaker 3: if you want to go check it out. It's in their,
- 1:56:17Speaker 3: where would it be, in their health section there, I guess, right?
- 1:56:22Speaker 3: What does– and this study at one point had about
- 1:56:26Speaker 3: 150,000 people part of it across multiple countries. What do
- 1:56:30Speaker 3: you think one of the most dangerous– well, one of
- 1:56:33Speaker 3: the most controversial things you can do when eating? Chew
- 1:56:39Speaker 3: with your mouth open.
- 1:56:40Speaker 4: Well, it's wild. It's hard to frame this question.
- 1:56:43Speaker 3: It really is.
- 1:56:44Speaker 4: Eat too fast?
- 1:56:45Speaker 9: No.
- 1:56:47Speaker 3: It's not eat too fast. I framed it improperly, okay?
- 1:56:50Speaker 3: I'm not doing a good job today on that, but
- 1:56:52Speaker 3: I'll give you this. Here's the deal. Eating alone.
- 1:56:55Speaker 3: They did a study about eating alone, and they found
- 1:56:59Speaker 3: out this Japanese study that had thousands of people, one
- 1:57:03Speaker 3: had 6,000, one had 150,000, figured out that not only,
- 1:57:06Speaker 3: this is in 2025 as well, that when you eat alone,
- 1:57:09Speaker 3: not only does it contribute to depression or depressive attitudes,
- 1:57:15Speaker 3: but it also reduces your cognition. That your brain actually
- 1:57:19Speaker 3: works less hard and doesn't have the ability to kind
- 1:57:24Speaker 3: of think out of the box more the more you
- 1:57:27Speaker 3: eat alone.
- 1:57:27Speaker 9: Aw.
- 1:57:29Speaker 3: Which I found kind of crazy. I hate it. And
- 1:57:35Speaker 3: the reason why I hate it as well is this.
- 1:57:39Speaker 3: I love eating alone. I love it. I love going
- 1:57:43Speaker 3: to a restaurant by myself. And sitting there and having
- 1:57:45Speaker 3: a meal and knowing that I don't have to make
- 1:57:47Speaker 3: small talk with anybody. I don't have to do it.
- 1:57:49Speaker 3: I can enjoy my phone. I can eat my meal.
- 1:57:51Speaker 3: One of my greatest pleasures in life until they shut
- 1:57:54Speaker 3: this thing down was this Chinese buffet right around the
- 1:57:56Speaker 3: corner here. I would go in. I would get the
- 1:57:58Speaker 3: very corner booth facing away from everybody. And I would
- 1:58:02Speaker 3: put my phone against the napkin machine. And I would
- 1:58:05Speaker 3: sit there and eat my all-you-can-eat Chinese food. And it
- 1:58:08Speaker 3: was glorious.
- 1:58:10Speaker 5: Absolutely glorious.
- 1:58:12Speaker 4: The difference with that is that it's by choice.
- 1:58:14Speaker 3: It is, but I think to the point, Jimmy, you
- 1:58:17Speaker 3: said they said lower cognition.
- 1:58:19Speaker 9: Yes.
- 1:58:20Speaker 3: So you don't have to make small talk. It's easier.
- 1:58:24Speaker 3: You don't have to think as much.
- 1:58:25Speaker 9: Right.
- 1:58:25Speaker 3: You're looking at your phone. It's easier.
- 1:58:28Speaker 5: You don't have to think as much. So, I mean,
- 1:58:31Speaker 5: you're underscoring why you might have lower cognition if you
- 1:58:35Speaker 5: eat alone regularly.
- 1:58:38Speaker 3: It says in 2025, Japanese researchers found that people who
- 1:58:41Speaker 3: regularly eat alone have reduced brain volume in key regions
- 1:58:43Speaker 3: associated with cognitive function, including the medial temporal lobe and
- 1:58:48Speaker 3: the hippocampus. And it says some of those appear to
- 1:58:52Speaker 3: be the diet itself in general. People who eat by
- 1:58:56Speaker 3: themselves tend to consume less nutritious foods, but it couldn't
- 1:58:59Speaker 3: account for everything. But this is on top of another
- 1:59:02Speaker 3: study that says eating alone, in other words, not interacting
- 1:59:05Speaker 3: with people while you break bread. And by the way,
- 1:59:07Speaker 3: it says that the word companion is broken down from
- 1:59:10Speaker 3: an old Latin word that actually means with bread. So
- 1:59:15Speaker 3: just the idea of having a companion means, like initially
- 1:59:18Speaker 3: what is a companion is, the first term of that
- 1:59:20Speaker 3: was someone to eat with.
- 1:59:23Speaker 5: You never invited Deb and I to this Chinese buffet.
- 1:59:27Speaker 5: I didn't even know there was a Chinese buffet around here. Yeah, Mercado,
- 1:59:30Speaker 5: right up there on the corner in that public shopping plaza.
- 1:59:32Speaker 5: I used to talk about it all the time. Ross
- 1:59:33Speaker 5: went with me one time.
- 1:59:34Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 1:59:34Speaker 3: He loved it. Oh, he invited Ross.
- 1:59:35Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah. Do you eat alone much?
- 1:59:40Speaker 4: Not so much anymore.
- 1:59:41Speaker 5: Yeah, because even when you're lunch, you're here with me.
- 1:59:44Speaker 4: Oh, that's as alone as I'll be my entire day.
- 1:59:49Speaker 3: Do you and your husband eat together every night?
- 1:59:52Speaker 4: Sometimes, sometimes no. Do you enjoy eating alone? It doesn't
- 1:59:55Speaker 4: bother me.
- 1:59:56Speaker 3: It doesn't bother you at all?
- 1:59:57Speaker 4: It doesn't bother me.
- 1:59:58Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't bother me at all.
- 1:59:59Speaker 4: It's never said anything to me about, you know, but
- 2:00:02Speaker 4: I do think of like people like my mom. And
- 2:00:05Speaker 4: other people who maybe are retired, they're not going out
- 2:00:08Speaker 4: to those workplace lunches anymore, not having that kind of
- 2:00:12Speaker 4: exposure to people all the time. that's someone I worry
- 2:00:16Speaker 4: more about with this story than I worry about myself.
- 2:00:18Speaker 3: It actually mentions that very thing. And one of the
- 2:00:20Speaker 3: reasons they believe that this is, you know, it reduces your,
- 2:00:23Speaker 3: your ability to think certain ways is because you're not
- 2:00:26Speaker 3: interacting with people. You're not having, you're not sharing ideas.
- 2:00:29Speaker 3: You're not learning from other people and you're not teaching
- 2:00:31Speaker 3: them anything either. So you're right. A hundred percent. Some
- 2:00:34Speaker 3: people are eating alone right now and listening.
- 2:00:37Speaker 4: To us, but they're not alone.
- 2:00:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:00:40Speaker 4: We're there.
- 2:00:40Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:00:40Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:00:41Speaker 3: Pass the salt.
- 2:00:41Speaker 8: Yeah, exactly.
- 2:00:42Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:00:43Speaker 5: And if they're watching, let's pretend like we're eating. Dude,
- 2:00:45Speaker 5: even at home, I got to tell you, even at home. Careful.
- 2:00:49Speaker 4: I'm not sure your family wants to hear how much
- 2:00:51Speaker 4: you enjoy being by yourself.
- 2:00:53Speaker 3: I'm glad you said it and I didn't have to.
- 2:00:55Speaker 3: Everybody is perfectly, they understand. But sitting down at my,
- 2:00:59Speaker 3: we have like an island in our kitchen, right? And
- 2:01:02Speaker 3: my wife has this giant jar. It looks like an
- 2:01:07Speaker 3: old candy jar, but it's big. I mean, it's probably
- 2:01:09Speaker 3: three gallons, right? More even. And it's filled up with
- 2:01:13Speaker 3: fake fruit, like lemons and oranges, just to add some
- 2:01:16Speaker 3: color to the kitchen and whatnot. But I lean my
- 2:01:18Speaker 3: phone up against that, and I sit down in my
- 2:01:20Speaker 3: little salon, like, oh, my God, this is the greatest. Like,
- 2:01:23Speaker 3: I'm going to sit here. I don't have to answer
- 2:01:25Speaker 3: any questions. I don't have to answer any email, no text,
- 2:01:28Speaker 3: no nothing like that. Just sit here, rip through my phone,
- 2:01:31Speaker 3: read what I want to read, eat at the pace
- 2:01:34Speaker 3: I want to eat. Absolutely the greatest ever.
- 2:01:38Speaker 4: Now, Jack, I cannot imagine you would ever have a
- 2:01:41Speaker 4: problem eating alone.
- 2:01:43Speaker 3: What do you mean by that? I don't have a problem.
- 2:01:46Speaker 3: Do you enjoy it? A little bit. Yeah, yeah. Sure,
- 2:01:51Speaker 3: there's nothing wrong with that. I think this is a
- 2:01:53Speaker 3: cultural thing, too, by the way. It's, you know, if
- 2:01:55Speaker 3: my wife is working, I get to watch what I want.
- 2:01:58Speaker 4: Exactly.
- 2:02:00Speaker 3: I'll watch the thing I know she's not interested in.
- 2:02:02Speaker 4: That's right.
- 2:02:03Speaker 3: And by the way, this goes both ways. Women do
- 2:02:05Speaker 3: the same thing. Women love it when their guys are gone.
- 2:02:08Speaker 3: And they can watch the shows they want. They don't
- 2:02:10Speaker 3: have to answer any stupid questions from us.
- 2:02:12Speaker 4: Oh, deadly women, come on.
- 2:02:13Speaker 5: The last article I read right before the show today
- 2:02:15Speaker 5: was about Dolly's marriage to Dean and how it was
- 2:02:21Speaker 5: because they had time apart and time together and time apart.
- 2:02:25Speaker 3: And he was private.
- 2:02:26Speaker 5: He didn't, like, get involved in her career and just–
- 2:02:31Speaker 5: You know, so that time apart just made the time
- 2:02:34Speaker 5: when they were together more special.
- 2:02:36Speaker 3: It was actually described as a soft, open marriage, actually.
- 2:02:39Speaker 3: I read a piece today about that very thing. They
- 2:02:41Speaker 3: would never do anything with anybody, but they openly flirted
- 2:02:44Speaker 3: with people and had no problem with it. She said
- 2:02:46Speaker 3: that he would, and she would definitely do it. She goes,
- 2:02:49Speaker 3: her weakness was men. She said that in an interview,
- 2:02:52Speaker 3: that her weakness was men.
- 2:02:53Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:02:54Speaker 3: She loved flirting.
- 2:02:55Speaker 4: But they didn't go.
- 2:02:56Speaker 3: They never did anything. She goes, I would shoot him,
- 2:02:58Speaker 3: and he would do the same to me.
- 2:03:00Speaker 7: Right.
- 2:03:00Speaker 3: But we had a relationship. We understood. We loved each other. Therefore,
- 2:03:03Speaker 3: there was no jealousy, and we could have fun playing
- 2:03:05Speaker 3: around out there, always knowing that they were going to
- 2:03:07Speaker 3: come back home. Unless you were a redheaded bank teller,
- 2:03:09Speaker 3: then you get a song written about it. Exactly right. Jolene. Yeah,
- 2:03:13Speaker 3: it says... It says in his book Friends, Robin Dunbar,
- 2:03:17Speaker 3: who is a biological anthropologist at the University of Oxford,
- 2:03:20Speaker 3: suggested eating naturally triggers the endorphin system and those feel-good
- 2:03:24Speaker 3: chemicals behind our natural highs. This could strengthen the bond
- 2:03:28Speaker 3: forged over a meal. In other words, when you eat alone,
- 2:03:31Speaker 3: you get those feelings. You have nobody to share it
- 2:03:33Speaker 3: with or you don't have like a shared vibe, you know.
- 2:03:40Speaker 4: I don't know. Our Kansas trucker just said, LOL, I
- 2:03:43Speaker 4: eat alone 95% of the time going on 30 years
- 2:03:47Speaker 4: doing it.
- 2:03:47Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. That would be a bit difficult. But
- 2:03:49Speaker 3: I remember specifically when I started radio, we were doing
- 2:03:53Speaker 3: the nights at the time 7 to 10. That was
- 2:03:56Speaker 3: our shift at the time. So I was still running
- 2:03:58Speaker 3: my print shop. So I would leave my print shop,
- 2:04:00Speaker 3: go home. hang out with my kids for a little bit,
- 2:04:02Speaker 3: and I'd go to this place and eat dinner at this, again,
- 2:04:05Speaker 3: another Chinese buffet. I love them. Because I could eat
- 2:04:09Speaker 3: as fast as I want. I didn't have to wait
- 2:04:10Speaker 3: on service or any of that stuff. I could get
- 2:04:12Speaker 3: in and out as quickly as I wanted to. But
- 2:04:14Speaker 3: I found that 30 minutes or 40 minutes of time
- 2:04:16Speaker 3: before I went on the air was absolutely mandatory because
- 2:04:19Speaker 3: I'd just come from running a business, and I was
- 2:04:21Speaker 3: going in the goof cartoon world of radio, and I
- 2:04:24Speaker 3: needed that time to kind of shift gears over into
- 2:04:27Speaker 3: that other gear of what I was going to do
- 2:04:28Speaker 3: on the air. I love it. That buffer time is important.
- 2:04:32Speaker 5: Yes. I think that was one of the takeaways from
- 2:04:35Speaker 5: the pandemic, from all the people working at home. That
- 2:04:40Speaker 5: walk from your office to your kitchen is not long
- 2:04:45Speaker 5: enough to unwind where that drive home normally would be,
- 2:04:50Speaker 5: where you can decompress and kind of like leave the
- 2:04:54Speaker 5: work thing behind you. And whatever your routine is, whatever
- 2:04:57Speaker 5: you're listening to us, hopefully, but you know, whatever you're,
- 2:05:00Speaker 5: you're doing till you get home, that time turned out
- 2:05:04Speaker 5: to be something that is really important in, you know,
- 2:05:07Speaker 5: for your overall sanity.
- 2:05:08Speaker 3: A hundred percent.
- 2:05:09Speaker 5: But he had to tell you when I lived right
- 2:05:10Speaker 5: around the corner from the station here, literally at the
- 2:05:12Speaker 5: end of the road, I could ride a bicycle to
- 2:05:14Speaker 5: work in like eight minutes.
- 2:05:15Speaker 3: That's how close I was.
- 2:05:16Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 2:05:17Speaker 3: Um, I found that very thing, leaving work, going home,
- 2:05:20Speaker 3: getting home in like six minutes. And, you know, walking
- 2:05:23Speaker 3: into a family situation where you had responsibilities, it was awful.
- 2:05:27Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:05:27Speaker 3: Because there was no, like, downtime where you got to
- 2:05:29Speaker 3: kind of decompress. I find that this drive, even when
- 2:05:32Speaker 3: I lived in Geneva and now living in Usis, that
- 2:05:35Speaker 3: 30-minute drive is the absolute perfect time to listen to
- 2:05:40Speaker 3: something you want to listen to, to listen to nothing.
- 2:05:42Speaker 3: I mean, just a nice 30-minute drive to kind of
- 2:05:44Speaker 3: relax before you get home and get into that next mode.
- 2:05:46Speaker 5: Do you find that same thing?
- 2:05:48Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 2:05:48Speaker 16: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:05:49Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 2:05:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:05:50Speaker 3: It's the greatest.
- 2:05:51Speaker 4: I have no problem. I mean, but it is weird, though, having,
- 2:05:54Speaker 4: you know, been with Chris now, I'm not as comfortable
- 2:05:57Speaker 4: with alone time as I used to be.
- 2:05:58Speaker 7: Oh, really?
- 2:05:59Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:05:59Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
- 2:06:00Speaker 3: Because you used to, yeah, you lived alone for like
- 2:06:02Speaker 3: 10 years, right?
- 2:06:03Speaker 5: 17.
- 2:06:04Speaker 3: 17 years.
- 2:06:04Speaker 4: Yeah. And I loved it.
- 2:06:06Speaker 5: Really?
- 2:06:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:06:07Speaker 4: But now it's like, where is he?
- 2:06:08Speaker 3: Yeah. Your whoopee.
- 2:06:10Speaker 4: He's not home yet.
- 2:06:11Speaker 3: Where's your whoopee?
- 2:06:12Speaker 4: Where's my whoopee?
- 2:06:13Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:06:14Speaker 5: Every time he calls me i'm like what are you
- 2:06:17Speaker 5: doing he's like i'm sitting in the driveway.
- 2:06:21Speaker 3: Wiping my tears before i go.
- 2:06:23Speaker 4: In exactly girding my legs.
- 2:06:25Speaker 3: We did that topic remember like we had a topic
- 2:06:27Speaker 3: like that how many people sit in your driveway for
- 2:06:29Speaker 3: a few minutes before you go inside because you know
- 2:06:31Speaker 3: you walk in it's just gonna be all hell's gonna
- 2:06:33Speaker 3: break loose you got young.
- 2:06:34Speaker 4: Kids i was gonna say it's gotta be mainly parents
- 2:06:37Speaker 4: with like little.
- 2:06:38Speaker 5: Okay, your wife's got chores for you again?
- 2:06:39Speaker 3: That was my favorite, when the kids would come run
- 2:06:42Speaker 3: meet you at the door.
- 2:06:43Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 2:06:44Speaker 3: They're not doing that anymore.
- 2:06:45Speaker 8: No, no, no, no.
- 2:06:46Speaker 3: Let's get a pocket full of money.
- 2:06:48Speaker 2: All right.
- 2:06:49Speaker 3: All right, 77031, that's how you text us. Scott Brown
- 2:06:52Speaker 3: up next with It's Only Money.
- 2:06:53Speaker 7: What up, JCS crew? You guys are my decompression for
- 2:06:56Speaker 7: the day. After a long day, I've got a long
- 2:06:58Speaker 7: drive home.
- 2:06:59Speaker 3: Thank you, buddy.
- 2:06:59Speaker 7: Sometimes I even take the longer way to get home
- 2:07:01Speaker 7: just to listen to you guys, get everything off my
- 2:07:05Speaker 7: mind for the day, be relaxed when I get home.
- 2:07:08Speaker 2: I appreciate it.
- 2:07:09Speaker 5: Keep doing what you're doing.
- 2:07:10Speaker 4: Thanks, buddy.
- 2:07:10Speaker 3: I appreciate that so much.
- 2:07:12Speaker 16: So tell me, Jen, when you were sitting all alone
- 2:07:15Speaker 16: in your corner booth, who were you describing the succulents
- 2:07:20Speaker 16: and the nuances of the Chinese food to?
- 2:07:25Speaker 4: Nobody.
- 2:07:25Speaker 18: I love to eat alone, and I do it often,
- 2:07:29Speaker 18: and I do it on purpose because, I mean, I
- 2:07:32Speaker 18: love eating with people, but I feel like with people,
- 2:07:37Speaker 18: it's more of an experience, whereas I really get to
- 2:07:39Speaker 18: savor the food because I can eat.
- 2:07:41Speaker 6: Like a pig on my own. And I really like
- 2:07:43Speaker 6: that part. And I'm still a smart guy. It hasn't
- 2:07:47Speaker 6: hit me yet.
- 2:07:48Speaker 5: The Japanese brain death hasn't hit me yet. I'm still good.
- 2:07:53Speaker 5: All right.
- 2:07:54Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Jim Culber Show. We're already at 104.1.
- 2:07:58Speaker 3: I'm Jim. There's Deb. Hello. Jack is here as well.
- 2:08:00Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 2:08:01Speaker 3: Let's do It's Only Money.
- 2:08:03Speaker 1: Helping people passionate about planning for their future rise above
- 2:08:09Speaker 1: investment myths to build real wealth.
- 2:08:12Speaker 2: Isn't that really just common sense financial advice?
- 2:08:15Speaker 4: It's both.
- 2:08:18Speaker 7: Okay.
- 2:08:19Speaker 1: It's Only Money with Scott Brown from Edgewater Family Wealth.
- 2:08:24Speaker 5: Give it up for Scott Brown.
- 2:08:27Speaker 9: Yay.
- 2:08:27Speaker 3: Scott Brown. Who confessed as soon as he walked in
- 2:08:31Speaker 3: because he listens all the time that he also eats alone.
- 2:08:33Speaker 3: He looks like the type.
- 2:08:35Speaker 7: Breakfast.
- 2:08:36Speaker 5: What does that mean?
- 2:08:37Speaker 3: I mean, you're a very important guy.
- 2:08:39Speaker 5: You're always on the go. And it's like you're confident.
- 2:08:41Speaker 5: It takes a confident person to eat alone. Yeah, typically
- 2:08:45Speaker 5: it's breakfast. The diner in College Park that I go
- 2:08:47Speaker 5: to has like this little corner booth that nobody can
- 2:08:50Speaker 5: really see, and I try to grab it first thing
- 2:08:52Speaker 5: in the morning, put my headphones in, which is kind
- 2:08:54Speaker 5: of a jerk move, I think, a little bit. But
- 2:08:57Speaker 5: it's like, you know, I'm trying to– It's a jerk
- 2:08:59Speaker 5: move if somebody's with you.
- 2:09:00Speaker 7: Yeah, well, yeah.
- 2:09:00Speaker 3: That's for sure.
- 2:09:01Speaker 5: My wife hates that. And Scotty, take them off.
- 2:09:05Speaker 3: We're trying to talk.
- 2:09:05Speaker 5: We're trying to talk about the kids here.
- 2:09:07Speaker 3: But I was just like, when we go on the cruises,
- 2:09:09Speaker 3: one of my favorite things in the world is getting
- 2:09:10Speaker 3: up super early in the morning and going to that
- 2:09:12Speaker 3: coffee shop. Because Celebrity Cruise Lines is one we like
- 2:09:15Speaker 3: going on. And it has this barista-level, really nice coffee shop.
- 2:09:19Speaker 3: And all of the giant, comfortable chairs sit right in
- 2:09:22Speaker 3: the windows. So I get up there at like 6,
- 2:09:24Speaker 3: 7 in the morning, and I just sit there for
- 2:09:25Speaker 3: a couple hours sipping coffee and just hanging out, not
- 2:09:28Speaker 3: doing anything, no input, no output, no nothing.
- 2:09:31Speaker 5: It's the greatest.
- 2:09:32Speaker 12: The danger of that, because I have also done that,
- 2:09:34Speaker 12: and the danger of that is you lose track of
- 2:09:37Speaker 12: your coffee intake. And at some point, you start to vibrate.
- 2:09:41Speaker 12: You think, oh, I should probably cut this out now.
- 2:09:43Speaker 12: It's noon, and I've been here since 6. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
- 2:09:46Speaker 3: I get in that situation as well.
- 2:09:48Speaker 8: Yeah, I know.
- 2:09:48Speaker 3: All right, Scott Brown joins us from Edgewater Family Wealth.
- 2:09:51Speaker 3: That's edgewaterfamilywealth.com. Fiduciaries here in town for damn near 40
- 2:09:55Speaker 3: years making sure that your money lasts as long as
- 2:09:58Speaker 3: you do, making sure that you are doing the right
- 2:10:00Speaker 3: things with your cash, and letting your money earn money
- 2:10:02Speaker 3: for you. That's what these guys are all about.
- 2:10:05Speaker 5: Yeah, and we've got an event coming up.
- 2:10:07Speaker 8: You do.
- 2:10:07Speaker 12: We do at the Roost Chris in Lake Mary on
- 2:10:09Speaker 12: September the 26th at noontime. We are down to 13 spots,
- 2:10:14Speaker 12: and it holds about 80 in the spot we're using.
- 2:10:17Speaker 2: Oh, goodness.
- 2:10:17Speaker 12: We've got a large number of people coming in, so
- 2:10:19Speaker 12: if you want to spot at this thing, it's everything 401k,
- 2:10:23Speaker 12: everything we'll talk about at the end, of course, but
- 2:10:25Speaker 12: it's everything you want to know about a 401k, and
- 2:10:27Speaker 12: there are two or three things people really don't understand
- 2:10:29Speaker 12: about 401ks, or at least what I should say is
- 2:10:31Speaker 12: they have trouble finding this information. And maybe more importantly,
- 2:10:35Speaker 12: they don't even know they should have or ask for
- 2:10:37Speaker 12: this information. And I'll talk about this at the end,
- 2:10:40Speaker 12: but the reality is this event is the event we
- 2:10:42Speaker 12: get paid by companies to do for their employees. So
- 2:10:46Speaker 12: we're using the exact presentation we use for participants in
- 2:10:50Speaker 12: companies where we're getting paid to do that.
- 2:10:52Speaker 2: Right, yeah.
- 2:10:52Speaker 3: So iHeart would hire you. You would come in. They
- 2:10:54Speaker 3: would gather all the employees and say, hey, these guys
- 2:10:56Speaker 3: are going to come in today and tell you exactly
- 2:10:57Speaker 3: how to maximize your 401K and how. Things you need
- 2:11:03Speaker 3: to look forward to as you move toward that date.
- 2:11:04Speaker 12: Yeah, how to take advantage of the benefit. And a
- 2:11:07Speaker 12: lot of times people don't realize, quote unquote, it's a benefit.
- 2:11:09Speaker 12: They think, well, it's a company thing. I don't know
- 2:11:11Speaker 12: if I want to do the company thing. Well, the
- 2:11:13Speaker 12: reality is most companies, they're not fired up about offering
- 2:11:16Speaker 12: a 401k any more than they're fired up about offering
- 2:11:19Speaker 12: health insurance, right?
- 2:11:19Speaker 5: It's a cost.
- 2:11:20Speaker 12: To the company, but the reality is most companies need
- 2:11:24Speaker 12: to offer the benefits to keep employees happy. And if
- 2:11:27Speaker 12: you're not taking advantage of a quote-unquote benefit, which costs
- 2:11:30Speaker 12: the company money, you're really making a mistake. So one
- 2:11:33Speaker 12: of the things we're trying to bring to light is
- 2:11:35Speaker 12: how to take advantage of of this benefits that's being presented.
- 2:11:38Speaker 3: And how to maximize what you've done, what you've saved,
- 2:11:40Speaker 3: how to make that last the longest, how to get
- 2:11:42Speaker 3: the most out of that as well.
- 2:11:43Speaker 12: Yeah, I think that there are a few things people
- 2:11:45Speaker 12: don't understand, one of which is the cost of a
- 2:11:49Speaker 12: 401k to them and how that works and how they
- 2:11:50Speaker 12: can minimize that. You can actually minimize the cost inside
- 2:11:53Speaker 12: your 401k. A lot of people think, well, I'm beholden
- 2:11:56Speaker 12: to whatever the company's picked, I have these options, and
- 2:11:58Speaker 12: they all cost the same. The reality is you can
- 2:12:01Speaker 12: actually design your 401k to minimize cost if that's one
- 2:12:05Speaker 12: of the priorities for you. The other thing is diversification. People,
- 2:12:09Speaker 12: and we're going to talk about this at the end
- 2:12:11Speaker 12: because it's one of the things I sent you, but
- 2:12:12Speaker 12: diversification is often misunderstood in plans. People think they're diversified
- 2:12:16Speaker 12: when they're really not.
- 2:12:17Speaker 3: Right, right, right. Let's get to it. Scott does send
- 2:12:19Speaker 3: me a list every single week of some things we
- 2:12:21Speaker 3: can talk about to kind of introduce you to the
- 2:12:23Speaker 3: brand over there, Edgewater Family Wealth, and the one is
- 2:12:25Speaker 3: kind of weird.
- 2:12:27Speaker 5: You do this a lot. Why do you do this stuff?
- 2:12:29Speaker 5: Do what?
- 2:12:29Speaker 3: Well, you tell people not to kind of, you're like, well,
- 2:12:32Speaker 3: you know, like your book is like, well, I never
- 2:12:33Speaker 3: made anybody rich.
- 2:12:34Speaker 5: Honesty, you mean? Why don't you do honesty?
- 2:12:37Speaker 3: It says here that nobody, foreign concept. Nobody, quote unquote,
- 2:12:41Speaker 3: needs a financial advisor.
- 2:12:43Speaker 17: Right.
- 2:12:44Speaker 5: They don't.
- 2:12:45Speaker 12: The reality is nobody, quote-unquote, needs a financial advisor. You
- 2:12:49Speaker 12: really just need to eat and breathe, mostly. I mean,
- 2:12:53Speaker 12: beyond that, everything's a luxury. Maybe clothing, maybe shelter. Nobody
- 2:12:57Speaker 12: needs a plumber, right? You could literally do your own
- 2:13:00Speaker 12: plumbing if you got YouTube out. It would take you
- 2:13:03Speaker 12: four times as long, and you'd do it wrong four
- 2:13:05Speaker 12: or five times. But you could do that. You could
- 2:13:07Speaker 12: do your own electrical work. You could even represent yourself
- 2:13:10Speaker 12: in court.
- 2:13:10Speaker 5: You would be foolish to do that.
- 2:13:12Speaker 9: Right, right, right.
- 2:13:13Speaker 12: You could certainly do it. You can do your own taxes.
- 2:13:15Speaker 12: You can mow your own lawn. You can wash your
- 2:13:17Speaker 12: own car. Nobody needs somebody to do these things. So
- 2:13:21Speaker 12: what's the point of bringing this up then? The point
- 2:13:23Speaker 12: is that people want advisors. They want lawyers. They want
- 2:13:28Speaker 12: accountants for good reasons. And the reason is simply your time.
- 2:13:32Speaker 12: What do you want to do with your time? You're
- 2:13:34Speaker 12: not paying me to come in and just whatever I
- 2:13:38Speaker 12: learn about you that day. You're paying me for 40 years.
- 2:13:42Speaker 12: of experience, of seeing this, of giving you, hopefully saving
- 2:13:46Speaker 12: you time, saving you money. Studies show Vanguard, you're familiar
- 2:13:49Speaker 12: with Vanguard, when people think inexpensive investing, they think Vanguard, right?
- 2:13:54Speaker 12: Vanguard has a study out there, the Advisor Alpha Study,
- 2:13:58Speaker 12: which shows that the average financial advisor, in addition to
- 2:14:01Speaker 12: giving people their time back, The average financial advisor adds
- 2:14:06Speaker 12: about 3% annually to the return.
- 2:14:10Speaker 7: Oh, really?
- 2:14:10Speaker 17: Yes.
- 2:14:11Speaker 5: Outside of their fee? Outside of their fee in comparison
- 2:14:14Speaker 5: to people that do it themselves. And here's how they
- 2:14:17Speaker 5: attribute that. Behavioral coaching. That you called me in December
- 2:14:21Speaker 5: of 2018. Your account's down 18% because the market's getting
- 2:14:24Speaker 5: its teeth kicked in. Or in March of 22, I
- 2:14:27Speaker 5: give in, I capitulate, I don't want to do this anymore. 2008, 1999,
- 2:14:30Speaker 5: pick your year, I don't care. 2002, 2001, 1994, I
- 2:14:37Speaker 5: was there for all of them.
- 2:14:39Speaker 12: Even 1987 is when I started in the business. Those
- 2:14:42Speaker 12: phone calls where I talk the client into being rational
- 2:14:45Speaker 12: and realizing these are long-term investments, into realizing they invested $ 100,
- 2:14:49Speaker 12: it's worth $ 200, or it was worth $ 200, now it's
- 2:14:51Speaker 12: worth $ 180. You're still up $ 80, by the way. Don't panic.
- 2:14:56Speaker 12: Those phone calls, behavioral coaching, teaching people not to pattern
- 2:15:00Speaker 12: seek to say, well, the thing went down last week,
- 2:15:03Speaker 12: so it's going to go down this week. That is
- 2:15:04Speaker 12: not necessarily true. Teaching them to use their prefrontal cortex.
- 2:15:09Speaker 12: You were talking about brain deterioration, right? Using their prefrontal
- 2:15:12Speaker 12: cortex did not make an overly emotional decision that their
- 2:15:16Speaker 12: reptilian brain wants.
- 2:15:17Speaker 5: Them to make.
- 2:15:18Speaker 12: Which is the amygdala, to engage in the prefrontal cortex
- 2:15:22Speaker 12: so that they don't make a terrible decision. That's behavioral coaching.
- 2:15:26Speaker 12: Tax efficiency. A lot of people really underestimate or don't
- 2:15:29Speaker 12: understand how an advisor can add to tax efficiency. Just
- 2:15:33Speaker 12: where you take a withdrawal from at age 65 or
- 2:15:36Speaker 12: 59 or 55 can be the difference between a $ 10, 000
- 2:15:41Speaker 12: tax bill and a $ 30, 000 tax bill. Just where you
- 2:15:44Speaker 12: take the money from.
- 2:15:45Speaker 2: Wow.
- 2:15:46Speaker 12: A client calls up and says, I need $ 10, 000. They
- 2:15:49Speaker 12: call up a 1-800 number to whatever. I won't name
- 2:15:51Speaker 12: a company. But they have a company. They call up
- 2:15:54Speaker 12: a 1-800 number. Hey, I need $ 10, 000. The person who
- 2:15:56Speaker 12: doesn't know you from Adam on the other end says, sure.
- 2:15:58Speaker 12: And they send you $ 10, 000 without for a second stopping
- 2:16:01Speaker 12: to think, If they take it from here instead of here,
- 2:16:06Speaker 12: their Medicare won't be affected. That 23-year-old that doesn't know
- 2:16:11Speaker 12: who you are and barely is out of puberty is
- 2:16:13Speaker 12: not going to stop to think, well, I suppose they're
- 2:16:17Speaker 12: not going to do that.
- 2:16:18Speaker 5: Not hurting me.
- 2:16:19Speaker 12: That's how it sounded when I was in puberty, by
- 2:16:21Speaker 12: the way. And the other part of it is asset allocation.
- 2:16:24Speaker 12: How is the asset allocated? How are the assets allocated?
- 2:16:27Speaker 12: And the other part, and this will be surprising to people,
- 2:16:29Speaker 12: is cost. A good advisor can actually save you money
- 2:16:33Speaker 12: over and above their fee by choosing the right products
- 2:16:36Speaker 12: or the right stocks or the right bonds or the
- 2:16:38Speaker 12: right mixture. So these things add up to about 3%
- 2:16:41Speaker 12: on an annual basis. So my point is when I
- 2:16:44Speaker 12: say nobody needs a financial advisor, you have to wonder
- 2:16:48Speaker 12: why around 80% to 85% of all millionaires say, have advisors, right?
- 2:16:53Speaker 12: If they were stupid, A, they wouldn't have a million dollars.
- 2:16:56Speaker 12: And since they're not stupid and they do have a
- 2:16:58Speaker 12: million dollars, it must make sense that using a financial advisor,
- 2:17:01Speaker 12: not in every instance, I get that, but in most
- 2:17:03Speaker 12: instances makes a lot of sense.
- 2:17:04Speaker 3: And that's one of the great reasons at the end
- 2:17:06Speaker 3: of the show we always say, hey, look, call for
- 2:17:07Speaker 3: a consultation because you may be in that pocket where
- 2:17:10Speaker 3: you need somebody or maybe there's a possibility you need
- 2:17:12Speaker 3: somebody and maybe not even know it. So their scenario
- 2:17:15Speaker 3: may be alien to them and you would be able
- 2:17:17Speaker 3: to explain to them, hey, look, this is a scenario
- 2:17:19Speaker 3: where you may want to consider you know, some really
- 2:17:22Speaker 3: fine-tuning in your account.
- 2:17:24Speaker 12: You'd be shocked at how many times somebody has walked
- 2:17:27Speaker 12: into our office thinking they got it pretty well figured
- 2:17:29Speaker 12: out and they aren't even close.
- 2:17:30Speaker 5: Not even the ballpark.
- 2:17:32Speaker 12: Yeah, and they think, well, something as simple as your
- 2:17:35Speaker 12: required distributions at age 73, the government makes you take
- 2:17:38Speaker 12: money out of your IRA at that age. Something as
- 2:17:41Speaker 12: simple as maybe looking at a Roth conversion, which, P.S.,
- 2:17:43Speaker 12: doesn't work every time, but a Roth conversion early to
- 2:17:47Speaker 12: avoid a higher tax bracket later.
- 2:17:50Speaker 8: Right?
- 2:17:50Speaker 12: That could save a person with a $ 500, 000 IRA. That
- 2:17:54Speaker 12: might save that person $ 4, 000 or $ 5, 000 a year when
- 2:17:57Speaker 12: and if that works, right? That's just one example of
- 2:18:01Speaker 12: the kind of planning that people don't think about. They
- 2:18:03Speaker 12: also don't think about– I think one of the things
- 2:18:04Speaker 12: I sent you this morning was about diversification.
- 2:18:07Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:18:07Speaker 3: That's where we're going to move there next.
- 2:18:09Speaker 5: Yeah, so– Fire it up. I don't even remember what
- 2:18:12Speaker 5: I said. It says, when is diversification not diversification?
- 2:18:16Speaker 12: So I have met, I can think of one story
- 2:18:18Speaker 12: in particular a few years back where a gentleman walked
- 2:18:21Speaker 12: into my office with his 401k and he's like, I
- 2:18:23Speaker 12: don't know that I need you. To his credit, he
- 2:18:25Speaker 12: still was checking. But I'm pretty well diversified. I have
- 2:18:29Speaker 12: these seven mutual funds in my 401k. So we have
- 2:18:33Speaker 12: something that we call the fund x-ray where we look
- 2:18:36Speaker 12: at the funds and we look at the holdings inside
- 2:18:38Speaker 12: of the fund, right? Because most people see a line
- 2:18:41Speaker 12: item on their 401k, the XYZ fund, the Fidelity fund,
- 2:18:43Speaker 12: the Vanguard fund, the T. Rowe Price fund, whatever it is.
- 2:18:46Speaker 12: They don't really know what's inside of that fund. So
- 2:18:49Speaker 12: we x-rayed his funds, and his seven funds all had
- 2:18:53Speaker 12: the same top ten holdings.
- 2:18:54Speaker 7: Right.
- 2:18:55Speaker 5: It was just seven different names.
- 2:18:56Speaker 12: He owned seven different products that had the same... So
- 2:19:00Speaker 12: he was baffled as to why when the market went
- 2:19:03Speaker 12: one way or another.
- 2:19:04Speaker 5: They all acted in the same fashion.
- 2:19:06Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:19:07Speaker 12: Well, if I'm so diverse and the market's down, shouldn't
- 2:19:09Speaker 12: some of these other funds not do what the stock... No,
- 2:19:12Speaker 12: because they're all the same thing.
- 2:19:13Speaker 5: And the really.
- 2:19:17Speaker 12: I think part that he was confused by as well
- 2:19:20Speaker 12: is that he was paying more for four or five
- 2:19:23Speaker 12: of those funds. There were two of them that did
- 2:19:25Speaker 12: the same thing that cost half as much. So there
- 2:19:27Speaker 12: was a fund in his portfolio that was seven basis points,
- 2:19:31Speaker 12: meaning less than one-tenth of one percent. Most of his
- 2:19:35Speaker 12: money was in a fund that had the same top
- 2:19:37Speaker 12: ten holdings but cost literally five times as much at
- 2:19:41Speaker 12: almost 40 basis points.
- 2:19:42Speaker 3: Just because of where it was.
- 2:19:44Speaker 12: Just because he didn't take the time or understand that
- 2:19:46Speaker 12: inside of his 401k, he could look at all those
- 2:19:50Speaker 12: funds and through professional help, not to say he couldn't
- 2:19:53Speaker 12: find out on his own, but a lot of people
- 2:19:54Speaker 12: don't know how to do that. With a little bit
- 2:19:57Speaker 12: of professional help, we were able to say, look, dude,
- 2:19:59Speaker 12: you got Microsoft and you got Apple and you got
- 2:20:02Speaker 12: NVIDIA and you got all the things you want to have.
- 2:20:05Speaker 12: You don't need them in these seven funds. You need
- 2:20:07Speaker 12: it in this one fund that costs the least that
- 2:20:09Speaker 12: has the same thing. So something as simple as that
- 2:20:12Speaker 12: can save a person $ 2, 000 or $ 3, 000 or $ 4, 000 a
- 2:20:14Speaker 12: year depending on their accounts. Wow, that's incredible. So when
- 2:20:17Speaker 12: you think about the idea that this person thought they
- 2:20:20Speaker 12: had diversification, they did not. This person didn't realize they
- 2:20:24Speaker 12: were overpaying for a fund they didn't have to pay
- 2:20:26Speaker 12: for when the same thing was available at a lower cost.
- 2:20:29Speaker 12: in their same 401k, right? So there's no HR person
- 2:20:33Speaker 12: you're going to go to and say, hey, explain these
- 2:20:35Speaker 12: funds to me.
- 2:20:36Speaker 3: You can't click on the Fidelity FAQ and go and
- 2:20:40Speaker 3: ask its bot what's the best thing to do here.
- 2:20:42Speaker 12: And I would argue that most of the people listening
- 2:20:45Speaker 12: to us right now have never even realized they could
- 2:20:47Speaker 12: do that. So that brings me back to the event,
- 2:20:50Speaker 12: Everything 401k, where we're going to talk a lot about
- 2:20:53Speaker 12: these things and how to find them, where to look
- 2:20:55Speaker 12: for them, and why these things matter. In addition to that,
- 2:20:58Speaker 12: we're going to talk about kind of the emotional part
- 2:21:02Speaker 12: of investing. Most people have not been trained to not
- 2:21:06Speaker 12: pattern-seek because, as I've discussed on this show many, many times,
- 2:21:10Speaker 12: as human beings, we're pattern-seekers. So if I say 246…
- 2:21:13Speaker 12: everybody can say 8. If I say 3, 5, 7,
- 2:21:16Speaker 12: everybody can say 9. I don't know about Jack. Jack
- 2:21:18Speaker 12: can probably say 9. I was going 11.
- 2:21:20Speaker 3: I was on 11.
- 2:21:21Speaker 12: So if I say 3, 5, whatever, 7, everybody can
- 2:21:23Speaker 12: say 9. We're trained to do that. As human beings,
- 2:21:27Speaker 12: our kindergarten teacher taught us that. So we also think
- 2:21:30Speaker 12: that applies to investment. So what happens to people is
- 2:21:33Speaker 12: when they're given all these choices, this menu, they just
- 2:21:36Speaker 12: go down the list until they find the one that
- 2:21:37Speaker 12: did best last year.
- 2:21:38Speaker 14: Right.
- 2:21:39Speaker 5: And then they put all of their money in that one.
- 2:21:41Speaker 3: Right.
- 2:21:42Speaker 12: And then they, they wait for their statement to come
- 2:21:44Speaker 12: a quarter later and they pull out the statement and
- 2:21:46Speaker 12: they're like, all right, let's see what my genius has
- 2:21:48Speaker 12: brought me because I'm a pattern seeker.
- 2:21:49Speaker 3: Apparently I'm in the WTF fund.
- 2:21:52Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 2:21:53Speaker 12: And then they realized the thing they were in didn't
- 2:21:55Speaker 12: do very well. So what do they do again? They
- 2:21:58Speaker 12: look down the list again and pick the one that
- 2:22:00Speaker 12: did better last quarter. It's like changing lanes on I-4, right?
- 2:22:03Speaker 12: You're in traffic. The lane next to you is going.
- 2:22:06Speaker 12: You're like, all right, well, this must be the going lane,
- 2:22:08Speaker 12: so I'll go over there and what happens?
- 2:22:10Speaker 5: Immediately the lane you.
- 2:22:11Speaker 12: Were in starts going and the lane you're now in stops.
- 2:22:14Speaker 12: It doesn't work in traffic and it does not work
- 2:22:16Speaker 12: in investing. And so one of the things we want
- 2:22:19Speaker 12: to teach people is how to avoid patterns. Yeah, it
- 2:22:21Speaker 12: doesn't work at the grocery store either.
- 2:22:22Speaker 5: It does not.
- 2:22:23Speaker 3: Just when you think you found the lane where the
- 2:22:25Speaker 3: person is going to go to the fastest, that person
- 2:22:27Speaker 3: is paying with a check from Uganda.
- 2:22:28Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 2:22:29Speaker 3: And you're never getting out of there.
- 2:22:30Speaker 12: Yeah, like literally, the guy's got three things and now
- 2:22:33Speaker 12: he's licking his finger.
- 2:22:35Speaker 5: You guys take Bitcoin? How do I make this out?
- 2:22:38Speaker 12: I've got like 20 Canadian. And then the 19-year-old cashier
- 2:22:42Speaker 12: is like, I don't even know what a check is.
- 2:22:43Speaker 12: What are you doing, old lady?
- 2:22:46Speaker 5: What are you writing? Are you taking notes? What's that
- 2:22:47Speaker 5: piece of paper?
- 2:22:49Speaker 3: All right, the event is the 26th coming up. It's
- 2:22:51Speaker 3: at Ruth's Chris in Lake Mary. Only 13 spots left. Now,
- 2:22:54Speaker 3: this is an 80-person gig, so it is a really,
- 2:22:56Speaker 3: really nice big seminar with a lot of information. You
- 2:22:59Speaker 3: do get a free lunch, steak or chicken. And, of course,
- 2:23:01Speaker 3: if you've not been to Ruth's Chris for their steak,
- 2:23:03Speaker 3: they're legendary. I mean, it's very, very good.
- 2:23:06Speaker 4: You can't just say steak or chicken. This is Ruth's Chris.
- 2:23:08Speaker 5: Yeah, the chicken is actually pretty badass. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:23:11Speaker 3: But on top of the great food you get, you're
- 2:23:13Speaker 3: going to get some information that can really help you
- 2:23:15Speaker 3: as you kind of grow toward your retirement age. And
- 2:23:18Speaker 3: maybe even more so, find somebody that can kind of
- 2:23:20Speaker 3: really dial in your accounts to make sure that you're
- 2:23:23Speaker 3: doing the right things like you just talked about.
- 2:23:25Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:23:26Speaker 12: And everybody's 401k is a little different. If you work
- 2:23:28Speaker 12: at Disney, yours is different than Universal and so on
- 2:23:30Speaker 12: and so forth. So we're not going to be able
- 2:23:32Speaker 12: to say your 401k is this. But if you bring–
- 2:23:35Speaker 12: a lot of people have asked, I think in the
- 2:23:38Speaker 12: text service, a lot of people ask, can we bring
- 2:23:40Speaker 12: a statement or whatever.
- 2:23:41Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:23:41Speaker 12: And we're going to have– there are going to be
- 2:23:43Speaker 12: four or five of us there. They're going to be
- 2:23:44Speaker 12: an advisor that can– if you have a real quick question,
- 2:23:46Speaker 12: you can kind of show them your statement. And we
- 2:23:48Speaker 12: can figure out if we can help you. If not,
- 2:23:49Speaker 12: we can do it in a consult. But, yeah, I
- 2:23:51Speaker 12: think this is kind of a soup to nuts thing.
- 2:23:54Speaker 5: I said that the other day to like a 20-year-old.
- 2:23:57Speaker 3: Soup to nuts.
- 2:23:57Speaker 12: They had no idea what I was– I don't follow.
- 2:24:01Speaker 12: What does soup and nuts have to do with any
- 2:24:02Speaker 12: of this? You've got to be careful, buddy. Yeah, you
- 2:24:04Speaker 12: do have to be careful. It's a whole new world
- 2:24:06Speaker 12: out there. Hey, when you guys do these, do you
- 2:24:08Speaker 12: record them by any means?
- 2:24:09Speaker 3: Do you guys do that?
- 2:24:11Speaker 12: We have in the past. I wasn't planning on it
- 2:24:13Speaker 12: this time, but certainly we have in the past.
- 2:24:16Speaker 3: Yeah, that's cool. But again, what you've got to do
- 2:24:18Speaker 3: is go to edgewaterfamilywealth.com. Go to the pull-down bar. You'll
- 2:24:21Speaker 3: see where you can reserve your seat. It does not
- 2:24:23Speaker 3: cost anything to go to the gig, but you've got
- 2:24:25Speaker 3: to reserve your seat because if not, you'll get left out.
- 2:24:27Speaker 3: And with only 13 seats left and the date approaching,
- 2:24:30Speaker 3: we know for a fact it's going to fill up.
- 2:24:32Speaker 3: It's just whether or not it's going to fill up
- 2:24:33Speaker 3: with you as part of it.
- 2:24:34Speaker 12: Yeah, I suspect it'll be full by Friday. Based on
- 2:24:36Speaker 12: what we've seen over the last few weeks, it'll probably
- 2:24:38Speaker 12: be full by Friday. If we have some people bail
- 2:24:41Speaker 12: out on us, we'll let you know on the air,
- 2:24:42Speaker 12: of course. But at this point, I would suspect Friday's
- 2:24:45Speaker 12: probably going to be about the deadline. Yeah, and it
- 2:24:47Speaker 12: starts at 12 o'clock? It starts at 12 o'clock. And
- 2:24:49Speaker 12: like I said, we're going to have some steaks and
- 2:24:50Speaker 12: some chicken. And if you just go to edgewaterfamilywealth.com, you
- 2:24:54Speaker 12: hit the drop-down button. It's right there, pretty easy to do.
- 2:24:57Speaker 3: And by the way, if you do wind up going,
- 2:24:58Speaker 3: and Jack can affirm this for sure, this is not
- 2:25:00Speaker 3: one of those things where you go and sit on
- 2:25:02Speaker 3: your hands. You need to get involved to really get
- 2:25:04Speaker 3: the maximum value of going out and spending your time there.
- 2:25:07Speaker 3: Ask questions. There aren't any stupid questions because nobody in
- 2:25:10Speaker 3: the world really understands the mechanism of these things inside now.
- 2:25:13Speaker 3: I mean, these guys do this for a living. That's
- 2:25:15Speaker 3: why you're going there. So please, if you do go,
- 2:25:18Speaker 3: make sure you ask questions. Make some notes of some
- 2:25:20Speaker 3: questions you have about your 401k before you get there.
- 2:25:22Speaker 3: That way you can get that information you need.
- 2:25:25Speaker 5: If you need a plant to ask the first question,
- 2:25:27Speaker 5: because everyone's waiting for someone to ask the first question.
- 2:25:29Speaker 4: Yes, that is true.
- 2:25:30Speaker 3: I'll be that guy for you.
- 2:25:31Speaker 5: Come ask a question.
- 2:25:32Speaker 3: For a steak, I'll be there.
- 2:25:34Speaker 12: So, yeah, so I actually would argue that the question
- 2:25:37Speaker 12: part is the best part.
- 2:25:38Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:25:38Speaker 12: Because that's where, and to Jack's point, somebody will ask
- 2:25:41Speaker 12: a question and then somebody's hand will slowly go up.
- 2:25:44Speaker 5: And before you know it, all the hands are going up.
- 2:25:46Speaker 13: Right, right.
- 2:25:46Speaker 5: So, yeah, the question and the answer part is actually
- 2:25:48Speaker 5: my favorite part. And you have to think about it.
- 2:25:49Speaker 5: Everybody's there for the same reason. You're not an odd
- 2:25:52Speaker 5: man out. You're there for that same reason. You came
- 2:25:54Speaker 5: to the event no different than the guy sitting next
- 2:25:56Speaker 5: to you or the lady that's up front. You guys
- 2:25:58Speaker 5: all came for the same reason, and that's for the
- 2:25:59Speaker 5: information to make your life better financially.
- 2:26:02Speaker 12: And again, for me, the great part is that so
- 2:26:06Speaker 12: many people have these questions and they're not getting answered.
- 2:26:10Speaker 12: And so they're spending an entire career using a product
- 2:26:13Speaker 12: or a benefit that they don't fully understand. And I
- 2:26:17Speaker 12: truly believe if they fully understood it, they would all retire.
- 2:26:20Speaker 5: With a million dollars. I truly believe that.
- 2:26:22Speaker 9: Unreal.
- 2:26:23Speaker 3: All right, that's September 26th at Lake Mary Ruth Chris,
- 2:26:26Speaker 3: 12 o'clock. Go to EdgewaterFamilyWealth.com and go to the pull-down bar.
- 2:26:29Speaker 3: Get your reservation, guys. Remember, it doesn't cost anything to go.
- 2:26:32Speaker 3: Only 13 seats left, so act quickly. Back with more
- 2:26:35Speaker 3: Scott here in one second. Deb, what do you got
- 2:26:36Speaker 3: for news?
- 2:26:37Speaker 4: The death toll in Nepal continues to climb. A suspicious
- 2:26:40Speaker 4: substance near the Orange County Courthouse sends three to the hospital.
- 2:26:44Speaker 4: And the best small lake town is... We'll tell you
- 2:26:48Speaker 4: about that next during You Heard It Here First.
- 2:26:50Speaker 3: You got it. Single a break. We'll come back and
- 2:26:51Speaker 3: get Deb's news and get the hell out of here
- 2:26:52Speaker 3: on a Tuesday.
- 2:26:58Speaker 2: It's time for a Talk Back Purge on The Jim
- 2:27:01Speaker 2: Colbert Show.
- 2:27:05Speaker 8: Hey there, Jim, Debra, Jack.
- 2:27:08Speaker 5: Hey, Ken.
- 2:27:09Speaker 8: Happy that being Tuesday?
- 2:27:12Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:27:13Speaker 4: Anyway, I just happened to see this.
- 2:27:14Speaker 8: Video of this guy, or picture.
- 2:27:17Speaker 3: Those ears.
- 2:27:19Speaker 8: My goodness.
- 2:27:20Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 2:27:21Speaker 3: Now, I was just wondering, if he could wiggle those ears,
- 2:27:27Speaker 3: could he fly?
- 2:27:29Speaker 2: Just think of it.
- 2:27:30Speaker 8: Bye.
- 2:27:31Speaker 4: Well, he knows dumb.
- 2:27:33Speaker 14: Hey, happy Tuesday. Hey, guys, with all this conversation buzzing
- 2:27:39Speaker 14: here about... these flock cameras, people just, everybody just calm down.
- 2:27:45Speaker 14: Just remember, joke them if they can't take a flock.
- 2:27:49Speaker 2: Have a great show. Love you guys. See you.
- 2:27:53Speaker 23: Jim Bob and crew, what's up? Talk about kinks and fetishes, man.
- 2:28:00Speaker 5: Okay.
- 2:28:01Speaker 3: Horrified already.
- 2:28:02Speaker 23: My fetish is watching Jim Colbert's show on YouTube and
- 2:28:05Speaker 23: looking at Jim's bald head.
- 2:28:07Speaker 3: Hell yeah, well, show it to you real quick.
- 2:28:09Speaker 23: Yeah, it's about to happen.
- 2:28:10Speaker 8: Easy.
- 2:28:12Speaker 7: Easy, buddy.
- 2:28:12Speaker 8: Come on.
- 2:28:13Speaker 9: Ew.
- 2:28:14Speaker 22: Hey, this is Diego, and I just wanted to say
- 2:28:16Speaker 22: this about Dolly Parton.
- 2:28:19Speaker 7: Okay.
- 2:28:20Speaker 6: She's only been gone a week, and, like, this past week.
- 2:28:24Speaker 22: I have thought about her legacy and I, honest to God,
- 2:28:28Speaker 22: I promise you, I have thought about being a better
- 2:28:31Speaker 22: person and the person that I want to be in
- 2:28:33Speaker 22: the future because it's put into perspective her life.
- 2:28:40Speaker 3: Yeah, they just announced one of the big shows. They
- 2:28:42Speaker 3: already have one TV show worked out. I noticed a
- 2:28:44Speaker 3: bunch of other stuff coming down the line, a two-day festival.
- 2:28:47Speaker 4: Well, they also found that her star on the Hollywood
- 2:28:49Speaker 4: Walk of Fame was vandalized.
- 2:28:51Speaker 5: No way!
- 2:28:52Speaker 4: What happened? Somebody scratched out her name. It was getting
- 2:28:55Speaker 4: ready for refurbishment anyway. But yeah, it was discovered that
- 2:28:59Speaker 4: Dolly Parton's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was.
- 2:29:02Speaker 3: Vandalized. Not cool, bro. That had to have been the
- 2:29:05Speaker 3: devil himself.
- 2:29:06Speaker 4: I know, seriously.
- 2:29:07Speaker 3: The F would do that. Even the most degenerate fools
- 2:29:09Speaker 3: would understand. Like, okay, she's got us.
- 2:29:11Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 2:29:12Speaker 3: All right, welcome back to the Jim Colbert Show. I'm Jim.
- 2:29:14Speaker 3: There's Deb.
- 2:29:15Speaker 2: Hello.
- 2:29:15Speaker 17: Jack.
- 2:29:16Speaker 3: Everybody, Scott Brown.
- 2:29:17Speaker 17: Hello.
- 2:29:18Speaker 5: Scott, I know you have a couple books that people
- 2:29:19Speaker 5: can download from your website. What would those be?
- 2:29:22Speaker 12: I Never Made Anybody Rich, which is the name of
- 2:29:25Speaker 12: my book that I wrote about 10 years ago.
- 2:29:27Speaker 5: Now you can get that at edgewaterfamilywealth.com.
- 2:29:30Speaker 12: And I got a guide, which is an e-book guide,
- 2:29:33Speaker 12: which you can actually download, a guide to using a
- 2:29:35Speaker 12: financial advisor.
- 2:29:36Speaker 3: Yeah, very good. And during the break, we actually just
- 2:29:39Speaker 3: got a text from Bratcher, who's at the office and
- 2:29:41Speaker 3: told us that the reservations are blowing up right now. So, guys,
- 2:29:44Speaker 3: if you do want to go to this event September 26th,
- 2:29:46Speaker 3: down at Ruth's Chris in Lake Mary. I would suggest
- 2:29:49Speaker 3: making your reservation tonight. Probably not going to make it
- 2:29:52Speaker 3: to the weekend because we see people active right now.
- 2:29:55Speaker 3: Bratcher just called during the break saying that, look, they're
- 2:29:57Speaker 3: filling up. So get over there now, EdgewaterFamilyWealth.com, and reserve
- 2:30:01Speaker 3: yourself a seat for this event coming up that is
- 2:30:03Speaker 3: specifically for 401ks. Bratcher, save me a steak! Yeah, yeah, really.
- 2:30:07Speaker 3: All right, Deb, let's get some news. Let's do the
- 2:30:08Speaker 3: audio first.
- 2:30:09Speaker 1: It's time for You Heard It Here First on The
- 2:30:12Speaker 1: Jim Colbert Show.
- 2:30:14Speaker 4: The death toll from the devastating flooding last week in
- 2:30:16Speaker 4: the Nepal-Tibet border region is now over 1,000. Authorities say
- 2:30:22Speaker 4: that more than 4,400 people remain missing. Nepalese Association of
- 2:30:27Speaker 4: Florida past president Dr. Neeraj Shretha says an estimated 7,000
- 2:30:32Speaker 4: Nepalese Florida residents are doing what they can to help
- 2:30:35Speaker 4: their homeland.
- 2:30:36Speaker 11: It's really sad that we're being here and hearing the
- 2:30:39Speaker 11: news every second, actually.
- 2:30:42Speaker 5: And then we're trying to see how we can come
- 2:30:44Speaker 5: together as a community.
- 2:30:45Speaker 4: Which is so hard, right? Because when communication is down,
- 2:30:49Speaker 4: you don't know. So at least 85 Americans are still
- 2:30:53Speaker 4: listed as missing. As search and rescue efforts continue, the
- 2:30:56Speaker 4: disaster began high in the Himalayas with a glacial collapse
- 2:31:00Speaker 4: that sent rocks and ice into the valleys below just
- 2:31:02Speaker 4: last Wednesday. If you'd like to donate, log on to Florida. Nepalese.org.
- 2:31:07Speaker 3: There you go.
- 2:31:09Speaker 4: Three Orange County deputies were taken to the hospital this
- 2:31:11Speaker 4: afternoon as a precaution after a, quote, unknown substance, end quote,
- 2:31:16Speaker 4: was found during someone's arrest at the Orange County Courthouse,
- 2:31:20Speaker 4: and all three deputies started to feel sick.
- 2:31:22Speaker 2: Oh, really? Yeah.
- 2:31:24Speaker 4: So they were taken to the hospital as a precaution.
- 2:31:27Speaker 4: The sheriff's office also said the first floor of the
- 2:31:29Speaker 4: courthouse was evacuated as the Orlando Fire Department reviewed the area,
- 2:31:33Speaker 4: but it's not known whether what the unknown substance was.
- 2:31:36Speaker 3: Horrifying.
- 2:31:37Speaker 4: Very, very much so. And then, this is the best
- 2:31:40Speaker 4: small lake town in the country, according to Travel and
- 2:31:44Speaker 4: Leisure magazine.
- 2:31:45Speaker 5: Now, I don't know what small is.
- 2:31:47Speaker 3: Is that like a.
- 2:31:48Speaker 4: Let me just make it easy for you.
- 2:31:49Speaker 9: Tahoe.
- 2:31:50Speaker 4: Laconia, New Hampshire.
- 2:31:52Speaker 3: Oh, man, that was my third guess.
- 2:31:54Speaker 4: It notes that during the summer.
- 2:31:56Speaker 3: Laconia.
- 2:31:57Speaker 4: Lake Winnipesaukee... And its neighbors attract both boaters and sunbathers. However,
- 2:32:07Speaker 4: the magazine notes Laconia does not lose its appeal when
- 2:32:12Speaker 4: the weather cools, which is what happens so often up north, right?
- 2:32:16Speaker 4: If you don't pay attention to the season in Florida,
- 2:32:18Speaker 4: you're going to learn real quick when you go up north. No,
- 2:32:21Speaker 4: but one local merchant is quoted as saying that while
- 2:32:23Speaker 4: other small towns in the area shut down in the off-season...
- 2:32:27Speaker 4: Laconia remains vibrant year-round.
- 2:32:30Speaker 7: Wow.
- 2:32:31Speaker 4: And you heard it here first on the Jim Colbert Show.
- 2:32:33Speaker 5: There you go.
- 2:32:33Speaker 3: Thank you, Debra. Appreciate that very much.
- 2:32:35Speaker 4: Granite State.

- 2:33:06Speaker 8: 24.
- 2:33:09Speaker 3: Oh, I was going.
- 2:33:11Speaker 5: To say like seven.
- 2:33:13Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. My first guess was 22, but I
- 2:33:15Speaker 3: went 18 because I didn't have any faith in the audience.
- 2:33:17Speaker 3: Did I say that aloud? You did. Didn't mean to.
- 2:33:19Speaker 3: I have tons of faith. Scott, always good to see you, buddy.
