- 15:06Speaker 6: Again, the Panhandle faces a severe flash flood threat and
- 15:10Speaker 6: embedded fast moving of tornadoes. Coastal areas face life threatening
- 15:14Speaker 6: rip currents. So they're asking beach goers, Hey, stay out
- 15:17Speaker 6: of the ocean. Drivers, don't drive down flooded roads.
- 15:20Speaker 3: You know the deal. Don't drown turn around, right, yeah,
- 15:23Speaker 3: all right.
- 15:23Speaker 6: In the meantime, President Trump's pick to lead the Federal
- 15:26Speaker 6: Emergency Management Agency as calling for balance that encourages cost savings.
- 15:32Speaker 6: Cameron Hamilton shared his stance during his confirmation hearing today,
- 15:36Speaker 6: and it appeared he sought to tow the line between
- 15:39Speaker 6: restoring order at the agency after a turbulent year it's
- 15:43Speaker 6: putting it lightly, and President Trump's desire to scale down
- 15:46Speaker 6: federal disaster aid. Hamilton indicated that the federal government should
- 15:50Speaker 6: pay less for the costs created by disasters, while highlighting
- 15:54Speaker 6: the need for the federal government to keep a watchful
- 15:58Speaker 6: eye on state spending.
- 16:03Speaker 3: According to Hamilton, it's kind of like what the state
- 16:06Speaker 3: is doing with cities. He's here in Florida and.
- 16:09Speaker 6: That's going to be my very next story exactly exactly,
- 16:12Speaker 6: Hello kettle, Yeah, thank you, this is me Blad. According
- 16:17Speaker 6: to Hamilton, he would want to quote strike a new
- 16:20Speaker 6: balance to encourage cost reasonableness and cost savings end. Quote
- 16:25Speaker 6: to that end, Florida CFO Blazing Golia brings his local
- 16:29Speaker 6: government audit tour to Osciola County, and Golia says that
- 16:32Speaker 6: Osciola's population has grown thirty two percent over the past
- 16:36Speaker 6: six years, but the government has grown much faster.
- 16:40Speaker 12: The general fund budget the portion of the budget that
- 16:42Speaker 12: is paid by your property tax dollars more than doubled.
- 16:47Speaker 6: He says, if the county had limited growth to inflation
- 16:51Speaker 6: and population, taxpayers could have saved five hundred and forty
- 16:54Speaker 6: four dollars a year on the bill for a three
- 16:57Speaker 6: hundred thousand dollars home. The tour comes as voter are
- 17:00Speaker 6: about to decide the fate of that amendment to raise
- 17:03Speaker 6: the homestead exemption, which opponents say could hobble services and
- 17:07Speaker 6: make local governments dependent on Tallahassee.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a mayor slay At coming in today
- 17:12Speaker 2: from Ovido to talk about those very things.
- 17:14Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly, And of course the Sentinel had an interesting
- 17:17Speaker 6: article about it yesterday. Yeah, President Trump and Charlie Kirk
- 17:20Speaker 6: could get roads named after them in South Florida. A
- 17:23Speaker 6: bill sent to Governor Ron De Santas on Monday would
- 17:26Speaker 6: rename a road in Miami Dade County for Kirk, and
- 17:29Speaker 6: a road in Broward County would be named for Trump.
- 17:32Speaker 6: This would be the second road in South Florida named
- 17:35Speaker 6: after Trump. Part of State Road eighty is already called
- 17:38Speaker 6: President Donald J. Trump Highway. Speaking of the highway, the
- 17:42Speaker 6: red light cameras are going to continue to be used
- 17:44Speaker 6: across Orange County for the next decade, even though yeah,
- 17:48Speaker 6: I know what you're looking at. This comes as the
- 17:50Speaker 6: Orange County Board of County Commissioners voted in favor of
- 17:53Speaker 6: a ten year extension with its tech vendor, which keeps
- 17:57Speaker 6: the red light camera network active. Between twenty twenty four
- 18:01Speaker 6: and twenty twenty five, the cameras issued nearly this many tickets,
- 18:05Speaker 6: bringing in millions to the county. So between twenty four
- 18:09Speaker 6: and twenty five, so in one year in just Orange County,
- 18:12Speaker 6: and just Orange County, five thousand, these cameras issued nearly
- 18:16Speaker 6: this many tickets.
- 18:17Speaker 3: Jack says, five thousand.
- 18:19Speaker 7: That seems adorable. I'll say twelve thousand. Nope, Baker's doesn't
- 18:25Speaker 7: fill one thousand, thirteen thousand.
- 18:26Speaker 6: All right, I mean I'll go fifteen. How about eighty
- 18:30Speaker 6: eighty thousand? Takes eighty thousand tickets? They send it the
- 18:33Speaker 6: deal because guess who's looking for a new revenue street. Yeah, yeah,
- 18:37Speaker 6: exactly exactly. So this despite they're huge, you know, there
- 18:41Speaker 6: are not popular counties are like well yeah.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Also the interesting thing of those like could you imagine
- 18:47Speaker 2: some of the photographs those red light cameras takes, oh man,
- 18:50Speaker 2: and you only imagine what they capture on those red
- 18:54Speaker 2: light on those red light cameras.
- 18:55Speaker 6: Maybe that's the other reason why they kept the ten
- 18:57Speaker 6: year deal. It's pre entertainment.
- 18:58Speaker 3: First thing I thought about. Check this one out. It's
- 19:01Speaker 3: a cord with a baby on the roof.
- 19:05Speaker 6: All right, this is authorities are identifying the pilot killed
- 19:09Speaker 6: in a Polk County plane crash. Investigators say twenty three
- 19:12Speaker 6: year old Michael Cole Robinson was flying a small, single
- 19:16Speaker 6: seat experimental plane near Lakeland Monday night when it broke
- 19:21Speaker 6: apart in mid air and crashed into a pasture. A
- 19:24Speaker 6: second pilot flying nearby reported seeing the aircraft come apart
- 19:28Speaker 6: before it went down. The FAA and NTSB are now
- 19:32Speaker 6: working to determine exactly what caused the deadly crashing. Even
- 19:35Speaker 6: though he was only twenty three, they said he was
- 19:37Speaker 6: a very experienced pilot.
- 19:39Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think that's the same thing that killed
- 19:41Speaker 2: the guy who owned Fair and Engineering, the building you
- 19:44Speaker 2: see right four with all the big gears and stuff.
- 19:47Speaker 2: I mean, everybody knows who Fair and Engineering it is
- 19:49Speaker 2: in Florida or in central Florida. And I think the
- 19:51Speaker 2: guy who ran that company also died in an experimental aircraft.
- 19:54Speaker 2: I remember saying back then like, why would you do that?
- 19:56Speaker 2: I barely want to get into one of who people
- 19:57Speaker 2: know how to build it. I know technically, go I
- 19:59Speaker 2: don't want to get into I built.
- 20:00Speaker 6: I know, I know how poorly I do things, all right,
- 20:05Speaker 6: don't be alarmed if you see brown water coming out
- 20:08Speaker 6: of your tap in part of Lake County.
- 20:11Speaker 7: This is why we bring you the story. Regardless of
- 20:14Speaker 7: how much you ask, no, it's still going to be alarmed.
- 20:16Speaker 6: Yes, this is why we're telling you that the City
- 20:18Speaker 6: of Groveland started emergency fire hydrant fleshing yesterday, So that
- 20:23Speaker 6: means you could see a temporary discoloration of your water.
- 20:25Speaker 6: You may also notice low water pressure, but the city says,
- 20:28Speaker 6: don't worry, the water is still safe to use. The
- 20:31Speaker 6: city also says the fleshing is needed, and that's to
- 20:34Speaker 6: clear naturally occurring iron mineral deposits from the lines ensure
- 20:38Speaker 6: everything runs efficiently. You don't want to find out the
- 20:41Speaker 6: line to your hydrant is clogged when you need that
- 20:43Speaker 6: fire hose put out a home fire.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to need some more evidence. Rather than
- 20:47Speaker 2: the word of the Groveland City manager to drink brown water.
- 20:51Speaker 6: The city decided to flesh at this time after residents
- 20:54Speaker 6: complained of discolored water caused by a faulty pressure pressure
- 20:58Speaker 6: switch at a water plant.
- 21:00Speaker 3: The flushing will continue through Friday.
- 21:03Speaker 6: All right, This next story sounds kind of simple, but
- 21:05Speaker 6: oh it's got even more tea between SpaceX and Bezos.
- 21:11Speaker 3: Oh really Yeah.
- 21:12Speaker 6: SpaceX now has more satellites in space. After a successful
- 21:16Speaker 6: launch this morning out of Cape Canaveral at about two
- 21:18Speaker 6: thirty nine this morning, called the Bluebird mission, a rocket
- 21:22Speaker 6: delivered three communication satellites into orbit. The satellites provide broadband
- 21:27Speaker 6: internet service to smartphones. This was Bluebird eight, Bluebird nine,
- 21:31Speaker 6: and Bluebird ten. What do you wonder what happened to
- 21:35Speaker 6: Bluebird seven? Remember back in April when Blue Origin tried
- 21:39Speaker 6: to launch the Bluebird mission on its new Glen rocket
- 21:42Speaker 6: and the rocket failed to reach the necessary orbits and
- 21:45Speaker 6: they lost the satellite. Imagine being Jeff Bezos and watching
- 21:49Speaker 6: those next three satellites be taken up by your competitor. O.
- 21:52Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm glad we're able to get those
- 21:55Speaker 3: birds launch this morning. That was pretty good. Like you
- 21:59Speaker 3: did so something buddy, you did not know. He's he's
- 22:02Speaker 3: on the board of the company.
- 22:05Speaker 2: Five years of SpaceX now, so he's got nothing to
- 22:08Speaker 2: do but say SpaceX stuff.
- 22:09Speaker 3: You're just joining us. This bit will last forever until
- 22:15Speaker 3: the Jim Colbert Show, until it loses one, and when
- 22:20Speaker 3: it loses, SpaceX will be the worst company that ever was.
- 22:23Speaker 7: And I'm happy to be part of this, you know,
- 22:25Speaker 7: the genesis of this eight year old bit that's soon
- 22:28Speaker 7: to happen.
- 22:29Speaker 6: Florida's Attorney general is putting out a warning to Major
- 22:32Speaker 6: League Baseball. James outh Meyer you ooth is weighing in
- 22:37Speaker 6: the controversy involving some San Francisco Giants players who wrote
- 22:40Speaker 6: Bible verses on their special Pride night caps they wore
- 22:44Speaker 6: at the ballpark. Those three pictures were reportedly warned by MLB.
- 22:48Speaker 6: So when a post on x outh meyer x asks
- 22:51Speaker 6: MLB quote, do you practice religious discrimination in Florida? End quote,
- 22:56Speaker 6: he then writes quote, You'll be hearing from my office soon,
- 23:01Speaker 6: he said.
- 23:01Speaker 3: Sasilygs comment.
- 23:03Speaker 2: Hey.
- 23:04Speaker 6: The AG's comments come on back of his subpoena issue
- 23:07Speaker 6: to the NFL earlier this year, calling into question the
- 23:10Speaker 6: league's Rooney Rule, which requires teams to interview a certain
- 23:13Speaker 6: number of minorities and females for certain positions. Don't let
- 23:18Speaker 6: this next story shock you, But Florida is one of
- 23:20Speaker 6: the least safe states for members of the LGBTQ community.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Which is wild. Really when you think about it, I
- 23:27Speaker 2: considering the dot that we are for that community in Orlando.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Berties used to be, he said, dot.
- 23:32Speaker 6: That's according to the twenty twenty six LGBTQ State Safety
- 23:36Speaker 6: report Card released by the website safehome dot org. Each
- 23:39Speaker 6: state was given a ranking based off factors such as
- 23:42Speaker 6: legislation which helps or hurts the LGBT community, and the
- 23:46Speaker 6: number of hate crimes against members of the community. The
- 23:49Speaker 6: report ranked Florida what place out of the fifty states?
- 23:53Speaker 2: Oh man, I'll say twenty two. I'll say thirty.
- 24:02Speaker 3: Forty third.
- 24:03Speaker 6: Oh really, Florida is ranked and forty third place with
- 24:06Speaker 6: a letter grade of D, meaning it's one of the
- 24:09Speaker 6: least safe states for members of the LGBT community.
- 24:12Speaker 3: The safe estate was listed as.
- 24:14Speaker 2: Like Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire. Okay, you only get one, Okay, Vermont, California? Uh,

- 24:24Speaker 3: How about Nevada? Oh was it really?
- 24:25Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 24:26Speaker 3: That's wild? Well, the most unsafe state was listed.

- 25:58Speaker 6: is still holding steady, but cruise has in other modes
- 26:01Speaker 6: of transportation are seeing the strongest growth. Something you've been
- 26:04Speaker 6: saying before. Tripa A says Florida remains a top domestic destination.

- 31:46Speaker 2: can talk about this real quick. Oh my god, dude,
- 31:48Speaker 2: I never trusted that drink.
- 31:50Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 31:51Speaker 2: I don't know what happened in my life where when
- 31:55Speaker 2: I find out that an actor isn't an American but
- 31:59Speaker 2: they primarily play American role they're in America, So they're
- 32:03Speaker 2: doing American roles. I found one this morning and it
- 32:07Speaker 2: it was We've done this a thousand times, but this
- 32:11Speaker 2: is a new one. And I don't know why.
- 32:13Speaker 4: Dude.
- 32:14Speaker 2: Every time I find out when I'm like, when I'm like,
- 32:16Speaker 2: that guy can really act, that guy's a that really
- 32:20Speaker 2: talented blah blah blah blah blah, and then I find
- 32:22Speaker 2: out they're not American. It doesn't change the way I
- 32:25Speaker 2: feel about it. But I do feel conned a little bit.
- 32:30Speaker 2: I do feel conned.
- 32:31Speaker 3: And I'm not saying get it. I get it.
- 32:32Speaker 2: It's not like they should have a like a crawler
- 32:36Speaker 2: across the bottom all. By the way, this guy is
- 32:38Speaker 2: not an American that he is putting on an American accent.
- 32:42Speaker 7: Yeah, you feel a little trick like you do like
- 32:44Speaker 7: a drunk dude entyly, Oh my god, dude, you just
- 32:47Speaker 7: I don't know what it is.
- 32:51Speaker 3: I thought this was one thing.
- 32:53Speaker 6: It turned out to be a whole thing on all fours.
- 32:57Speaker 6: What's a lady boy? Why am I on a force
- 33:03Speaker 6: hold the follower? I don't call him.
- 33:05Speaker 3: No might be the name of a city, but I'm
- 33:09Speaker 3: still not going there. Yeah, well, it's way too pretty
- 33:14Speaker 3: for it to be that you guys should you should
- 33:16Speaker 3: have seen this guy?
- 33:18Speaker 2: Yeah, the makeup, But I found one today. It was
- 33:20Speaker 2: just because I stumbled across an interview this particular actor
- 33:23Speaker 2: was doing and I was like, come on, man, that
- 33:27Speaker 2: guy too and you know what it is? No, Matthew Reese,
- 33:31Speaker 2: Oh yeah I did that.
- 33:32Speaker 3: You knew that. Yeah, he's Welsh only because he's Welsh?
- 33:37Speaker 3: Do you giddy? But I mean he's not even close
- 33:38Speaker 3: to me? Oh my god?
- 33:40Speaker 15: What?
- 33:41Speaker 16: Yeah?
- 33:41Speaker 3: When we did what did you Do?
- 33:43Speaker 2: That's New Yesterday for Widow's Bay and he stars in NAT.
- 33:46Speaker 2: He was also in The American you know, where he
- 33:49Speaker 2: played a Russian pretending to be American.
- 33:51Speaker 3: The irony of that, right, Uh. But that's where I
- 33:55Speaker 3: learned he was a Welsh born actor.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Yeah, did not know that until today when I saw
- 33:58Speaker 2: an interview and I say, oh, Matthew, I think this
- 34:00Speaker 2: guy's what the hell?
- 34:03Speaker 3: And I mean it is like I mean he is,
- 34:05Speaker 3: You're not in New England, Mayo.
- 34:06Speaker 2: The more the more they the more their natural accent is,
- 34:12Speaker 2: you know, really out there, the more impressed I am
- 34:15Speaker 2: of how well this guy pulls off this American accent
- 34:18Speaker 2: in this in this show. Because I mean he's from
- 34:19Speaker 2: the Northeast. I mean that already has its accent, right,
- 34:23Speaker 2: and then he's he's morphing the Welsh accent, which is
- 34:26Speaker 2: which is different than a regular British accent.
- 34:28Speaker 3: Yes, he's married to Carrie Russell. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah
- 34:32Speaker 3: so that and they both were in the Americans.
- 34:35Speaker 2: Yes, yeah so uh But I think the big one
- 34:38Speaker 2: that always comes up and they just texted about it
- 34:41Speaker 2: is Rick Grimes, uh from your Walking Dad, right yeah,
- 34:45Speaker 2: and also the.
- 34:46Speaker 3: One for me that I remember his house. Oh yeah, yeah,
- 34:50Speaker 3: Hugh Lorie.
- 34:51Speaker 2: Yeah you are you know, it's like, oh, you know,
- 34:54Speaker 2: you watch the show and then you you hear him
- 34:56Speaker 2: talk with an accent, It's like what the hell? And
- 34:57Speaker 2: even weirder and even weirder in that, like you, Laurie
- 35:01Speaker 2: came from the comedy world almost like the almost like
- 35:03Speaker 2: the uh uh like it was a comedy duo like
- 35:06Speaker 2: we used to have to do his mother like a
- 35:08Speaker 2: smother's brother thing. I mean it was it was Laurie
- 35:10Speaker 2: and something else over in England. Very popular for a
- 35:12Speaker 2: long time, I believe.
- 35:13Speaker 7: And if you're wondering, like where where we got to
- 35:16Speaker 7: strike back? Where are the American actors going, oh, you know,
- 35:20Speaker 7: where's that at.
- 35:21Speaker 2: That's the thing is, I don't have been costner that
- 35:23Speaker 2: Robin Hood will stop it with that or any attempt
- 35:27Speaker 2: that Keanu Reeves made at anything not good.
- 35:29Speaker 3: All right, See he's just catches trace. Do you have
- 35:31Speaker 3: the thing? Yeah, he's done good. You don't like him?
- 35:34Speaker 2: No, I like him as a person. I think he's
- 35:35Speaker 2: a wonderful person. The problem is, I just don't think
- 35:37Speaker 2: he's a good act He broke your point. You gotta
- 35:39Speaker 2: get over it. There's another There are a couple of
- 35:41Speaker 2: the New Lady actors like not your l Fanning's been
- 35:46Speaker 2: in that world. Who's the one that was in The Help?
- 35:48Speaker 2: She was in Bogonia? Oh emm a Stone. Yeah, yeah,
- 35:52Speaker 2: I think she does a couple of accents, uh for
- 35:56Speaker 2: for you know, as she's supposed to be English.
- 35:58Speaker 3: She's so good. Yeah, she's very good. She is one
- 36:01Speaker 3: of the best.
- 36:01Speaker 7: But it is I believe you know, I've dipped my
- 36:04Speaker 7: toes into the acting community. I know a handful of
- 36:07Speaker 7: actors and I want to say it's like universally known
- 36:11Speaker 7: that the American accent is way easier for British people
- 36:16Speaker 7: any like, yeah than Americans doing the British.
- 36:20Speaker 3: Accent and much better.
- 36:21Speaker 7: And when they mock us, yeah, well that's the thing
- 36:26Speaker 7: is that when they do their impression of us, it's
- 36:28Speaker 7: actually like damn, I can't tell. And then when we
- 36:30Speaker 7: do an impression of them, they're like, man, we all passed.
- 36:34Speaker 7: You should Yeah, yeah, this is very offensive. But it's
- 36:37Speaker 7: something to do with like a tongue muscle or like
- 36:40Speaker 7: a mouth formation to Thailand. Yes there's something with uh.
- 36:48Speaker 7: Tom Holland talks about it in an interview. That's why
- 36:51Speaker 7: I'm quoting this right as well. And Andrew Garfield, the
- 36:55Speaker 7: other spider Man British as well. It's a wild man.
- 36:57Speaker 2: We couldn't find one, give one person in this country.
- 37:01Speaker 3: We play that guy.
- 37:02Speaker 4: UH.
- 37:03Speaker 2: The most impress one of the most impressive is the UH.
- 37:07Speaker 2: Her last name is McDonald, but she's Scottish and I
- 37:10Speaker 2: mean sky yeah, yeah, Yachtish. And she plays UH, the
- 37:15Speaker 2: wife of UH in No Country for Old Men, the
- 37:19Speaker 2: wife of Josh Brolin, the wife of Josh Berlin, and
- 37:22Speaker 2: she's got this super thick kind of Texas draw accent,
- 37:27Speaker 2: and she is she is as Scottish as it gets
- 37:30Speaker 2: the only thing she's missing is bagpipes. And Hagis sculpt
- 37:33Speaker 2: just bread all right four oh seven nine six four
- 37:37Speaker 2: one Texas at seven seven zero three one. Yes, you
- 37:39Speaker 2: and McGregor. When I found out Obi one was not
- 37:43Speaker 2: one of us, yeah, Obi wan Yeah. And then I
- 37:46Speaker 2: found out that Qui gon Jin was also not one
- 37:49Speaker 2: of us. Damn yeah, man, hurt, hurt, hurt a little bit.
- 37:53Speaker 3: Yeah, my little my little kid heart was like, no, no.

- 38:51Speaker 6: camera right there, right there exactly. Hold please, okay, I'm
- 38:55Speaker 6: gonna bring her up. She's not a jumper right here. No,
- 38:58Speaker 6: he said he had to pick her up and put
- 38:59Speaker 6: her in the monster right there at her she how
- 39:06Speaker 6: old is Memphis? So Memphis is three years old. She's
- 39:10Speaker 6: she's sweet.
- 39:10Speaker 3: She's a sweet girl.
- 39:11Speaker 12: She's a little shy at first, and then once she
- 39:13Speaker 12: gets to know you, she just turns into that leaner, loving,
- 39:18Speaker 12: you know, tail wagging happy girl.
- 39:20Speaker 7: Are we pimping this dog out? Is this dog available
- 39:23Speaker 7: or is this your dog? This dog is available for adoption?
- 39:26Speaker 7: So yeah, I'm pimping her out.
- 39:28Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 39:29Speaker 7: She likes long walks on the beach. She actually you
- 39:32Speaker 7: could walk Memphis in Memphis, just for the irony sake.
- 39:37Speaker 7: That's that's a goal, a road trip with her to Memphis.
- 39:39Speaker 3: That's so funny.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I just try to kind of gave
- 39:42Speaker 2: some treats and I'm over here and I'm like, uh,
- 39:44Speaker 2: I'm like sit and then he just says, calm like,
- 39:46Speaker 2: she doesn't sit, dude.
- 39:47Speaker 3: No, I've tried.
- 39:51Speaker 12: For the past couple of days, she's been my office
- 39:53Speaker 12: mate and I'm like, come on, girl, sit and she's like.
- 39:54Speaker 2: I can wag my tail. She's very sweet, though I
- 39:57Speaker 2: know that she's a little bit docile, that's for sure.
- 39:59Speaker 3: Yeah, very much. So do you know any of her history?
- 40:02Speaker 12: So she got transferred in from one of our out
- 40:04Speaker 12: of state shelter partners, so no history came with her.
- 40:07Speaker 12: You can tell that she has had several litters, but
- 40:10Speaker 12: she's spade now, so no more puppies for this girl now.
- 40:12Speaker 6: She's ready to Yeah, and she is a great disposition.
- 40:16Speaker 6: So you've been spending you know, time with her as
- 40:19Speaker 6: your office mate. So you know what kind of what
- 40:22Speaker 6: would be the perfect family for someone like Memphis. I
- 40:24Speaker 6: would say just about anybody honestly, pretty much like someone
- 40:27Speaker 6: who wants to have a velcrow dog. She wants to
- 40:29Speaker 6: be right by your side.
- 40:32Speaker 12: Someone who has an endless supply of treats and hugs
- 40:34Speaker 12: and kisses and you know, and and just want has
- 40:37Speaker 12: to also know that her tail you saw when she
- 40:40Speaker 12: came in and said hi, It wags hard and fast,
- 40:43Speaker 12: so she can clear off a coffee table no problem.
- 40:46Speaker 3: Which is great.
- 40:47Speaker 9: You know.
- 40:48Speaker 3: Exactly you're having a World Cup soccer party. You just
- 40:51Speaker 3: want it?
- 40:51Speaker 6: Yeah, go ahead and put her down. She can roam
- 40:53Speaker 6: around anywhere she wants. So is she good with cats?
- 40:56Speaker 12: Unsure about cats, but she does get along with other dogs.
- 40:59Speaker 12: She does have some playgroups at our shelter, and you know,
- 41:02Speaker 12: she really enjoys that time, either in our indoor out,
- 41:07Speaker 12: in our indoor run, or the outside run.
- 41:08Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, good.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Man, I'm just on the website. Man, You guys have
- 41:11Speaker 2: a lot of really beautiful dogs here, you really do.
- 41:15Speaker 2: This is actually one of the best selections I've ever
- 41:17Speaker 2: seen on the website.
- 41:18Speaker 12: There's a good look a bunch there. Yeah, so, I
- 41:20Speaker 12: mean there's something for everyone when you come visit.
- 41:22Speaker 6: I would agree with that one hundred and again. You
- 41:24Speaker 6: know cats as well. Both Jack and myself have both
- 41:27Speaker 6: adopted cats from the Pedal Lions here.
- 41:29Speaker 12: Baby, here's are And I can't thank you enough guys
- 41:31Speaker 12: for that, because I mean, we have so many cats
- 41:33Speaker 12: right now, like there are over two hundred cats in
- 41:35Speaker 12: our foster program alone. Wown, Yeah, that are too young
- 41:39Speaker 12: to come to our adoption floor.
- 41:40Speaker 4: Wow.
- 41:41Speaker 3: Kitten season is upon.
- 41:42Speaker 6: Us, and that's always a super busy season. When does
- 41:44Speaker 6: kitten season kind of officially unofficially end.
- 41:48Speaker 12: It's the best way to think about kitten season. It's
- 41:50Speaker 12: usually the same months as hurricane season. Great, really, so
- 41:53Speaker 12: we've got some We've got several more months of a
- 41:55Speaker 12: kitten season going on, okay and so.
- 41:58Speaker 6: And fostering is also another really great up opportunity. If
- 42:00Speaker 6: someone has maybe a job where they travel a lot,
- 42:03Speaker 6: or they just they have long hours and they just
- 42:05Speaker 6: feel that committing full time to a fur baby would
- 42:08Speaker 6: be unfair. Fostering is still a great opportunity to get
- 42:12Speaker 6: that puppy love or kitten love without having to make
- 42:15Speaker 6: that full time commitment.
- 42:16Speaker 3: Exactly. It's just like it's short term.
- 42:18Speaker 12: You know, we're so thankful to all of our fosters,
- 42:20Speaker 12: but short term, So what would that be like? It
- 42:23Speaker 12: can be anywhere, like you know, they're usually like one
- 42:25Speaker 12: or two weeks or depending like say, if you took
- 42:28Speaker 12: in a four week old kitten.
- 42:29Speaker 3: You know you tease me with a good time, I can't.
- 42:32Speaker 12: I can tell you, I'm going to send you some
- 42:34Speaker 12: pictures later. But it all depends on what their needs are,
- 42:37Speaker 12: Like is it a bottle feeding kitten or is it
- 42:39Speaker 12: just a puppy that you know, just needs to be
- 42:40Speaker 12: in foster for a week until it's eight weeks old
- 42:43Speaker 12: and then can move to our adoption floor.
- 42:45Speaker 6: And what's great is that the fostering also helps the
- 42:47Speaker 6: animal acclimate to a home environment, which hopefully will help
- 42:50Speaker 6: make them even more adoptable foster exactly.
- 42:53Speaker 12: Fostering is fine. Like I passed this past weekend, I
- 42:55Speaker 12: just took home a kitten for the weekend and and
- 42:58Speaker 12: it was great because I came back to the shelter
- 43:00Speaker 12: and I was like, guess what this kitten gets along
- 43:02Speaker 12: with dogs?
- 43:02Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's like a soulful blockbuster. The one thing
- 43:09Speaker 2: I've you know, because we're sitting my daughter's cat. The
- 43:11Speaker 2: one thing I know about cats now is is they
- 43:14Speaker 2: do not live with the same clock that we do. No,
- 43:18Speaker 2: they do not understand the idea of two thirty in
- 43:20Speaker 2: the morning is not a really good time to let's say,
- 43:23Speaker 2: get super pissed off at their litter box, or to
- 43:26Speaker 2: scratch and claw everything we have in the house where
- 43:29Speaker 2: it sounds like literally somebody's coming in the back door
- 43:31Speaker 2: with a bulldozer.
- 43:32Speaker 3: But that's what the cat does.
- 43:33Speaker 4: I know.
- 43:33Speaker 12: It's like you try when they start scratching on furniture
- 43:36Speaker 12: that they should and you're supposed to move them directly
- 43:38Speaker 12: to their scratching posts. Nine times out of ten they'll
- 43:40Speaker 12: go back to the course.
- 43:41Speaker 3: Yeah, they're like, bitch, why'd you move me? So, Kenny,
- 43:44Speaker 3: what I really want you to be able to talk about? Sorry,
- 43:46Speaker 3: but that's all right. Oops, maybe one too many cookies.
- 43:49Speaker 4: She sneeze.
- 43:50Speaker 6: She either sneezed or little cookie dust back there. The
- 43:53Speaker 6: padal Lines just launched this really super cool I did
- 43:58Speaker 6: say that, didn't I say.
- 44:00Speaker 3: I've fared about it. I didn't think anyone heard of it.
- 44:03Speaker 3: Just blame it on the dog. Always blame it on
- 44:06Speaker 3: the dog.
- 44:07Speaker 6: That's one of the best things about having animals in
- 44:08Speaker 6: the house. You always have someone to blame it on.
- 44:11Speaker 3: And she'll smile. It was me. Sorry, dude, didn't mean that.
- 44:15Speaker 3: She's your ride or die.
- 44:16Speaker 6: But you have a really cool new program for folks
- 44:19Speaker 6: to work in the office or remotely. But they're looking
- 44:21Speaker 6: like if they've got a really boring meeting coming up
- 44:24Speaker 6: or some kind of team building exercise they're trying to
- 44:27Speaker 6: think up and everyone's like, please don't yees.
- 44:29Speaker 12: So we've got to know you've seen the pictures on
- 44:31Speaker 12: our website.
- 44:32Speaker 3: I saw news. Actually, I love that you saw that.
- 44:34Speaker 8: Think.
- 44:34Speaker 12: Yeah, we've got a meeting space that's available for rent
- 44:38Speaker 12: at our new shelter. So it's about eight hundred and
- 44:40Speaker 12: seventy five square feet. It's got its own separate entrance.
- 44:45Speaker 12: And the best part about it, you know, you can
- 44:46Speaker 12: rent it by the hour for four hours the full day.
- 44:50Speaker 12: But what's included as a cuddle break, so you get
- 44:53Speaker 12: a half hour of cuddle break with either puppies or kittens,
- 44:58Speaker 12: shelter dogs. I mean, it's just it's a meeting with
- 45:01Speaker 12: the purpose, Jim, because all the money, you know, benefits
- 45:04Speaker 12: the homeless animals.
- 45:05Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you need a buddy cuddle break? Yeah,
- 45:08Speaker 3: I've with you.
- 45:10Speaker 2: No, No, you're looking really deep in my eyes. Both,
- 45:18Speaker 2: that's what you need, not for nothing. I thought he
- 45:20Speaker 2: was pitching for himself as well. We're asking the same question.
- 45:26Speaker 3: Cuddle break with puppies or kittens.
- 45:28Speaker 6: Oh, very nice, Which is a great idea because a
- 45:30Speaker 6: lot of buildings, you know, may not allow animals.
- 45:33Speaker 3: So even though you may want to do yes, baby,
- 45:35Speaker 3: I know you want more cookies.
- 45:36Speaker 6: So even though you might want to do one of
- 45:37Speaker 6: these one of these meetings if your building doesn't allow animals,
- 45:42Speaker 6: or you're just looking to kind of get out of
- 45:44Speaker 6: the office rut, the office routine, maybe get your off
- 45:47Speaker 6: your remote workers all gathered in one space. How is
- 45:50Speaker 6: the new shelter going, by the way, I know you
- 45:51Speaker 6: guys it's been open what two three months?
- 45:54Speaker 12: Oh yeah, because we opened up in March, so yeah,
- 45:56Speaker 12: it's almost three months now that we've been open and
- 45:59Speaker 12: things are going great. Adoptions are happening. You know, we've
- 46:01Speaker 12: got a lot of kittens and foster but we've got
- 46:04Speaker 12: also a lot of pets that are going to forever home,
- 46:06Speaker 12: so we're happy.
- 46:06Speaker 3: That is good news. Are there any needs that the
- 46:09Speaker 3: you know, because you are still a nonprofit, so yeah,
- 46:12Speaker 3: we always have needs.
- 46:13Speaker 12: I mean we always put it on our wish list,
- 46:15Speaker 12: but off the top of my head, like one of
- 46:16Speaker 12: the things that we read we need right now for
- 46:18Speaker 12: kittens and puppies are they're called their little heat packs
- 46:22Speaker 12: to keep them warm.
- 46:24Speaker 3: Really yeah, even in the summer.
- 46:25Speaker 12: Even in the summer, like their body temperature you know, fluctuates,
- 46:28Speaker 12: so they we try to keep always keep them warm.
- 46:30Speaker 12: When you get the for example, again like a four
- 46:33Speaker 12: week old kitten. We keep them, you know, either in
- 46:36Speaker 12: an incubator or something keep them warm.
- 46:38Speaker 16: Yeah.
- 46:39Speaker 3: Wow, have you ever thought about it? Like the kitten
- 46:41Speaker 3: burrito thing you see where they wrap kittens and blankets. Well,
- 46:44Speaker 3: I've got some fun pictures of that too. Yeah, I
- 46:46Speaker 3: love a little It's called a purrit to perrito.
- 46:49Speaker 2: I'm sorry, did explain this to me again?
- 46:53Speaker 3: Going on, it's Kenny. Did you say perrito? Yeah? Yeah,
- 46:57Speaker 3: you need your next time on Instagram, you need to
- 46:59Speaker 3: go look up the purrito.
- 47:01Speaker 12: We do it all the time after surgery, after the
- 47:03Speaker 12: kittens get yea wrap them up in swaddle them basically
- 47:09Speaker 12: basically like baby like baby like how you put a
- 47:12Speaker 12: diaper on a baby, basically the same thing, but it's
- 47:15Speaker 12: called a perrito like a little and then they don't move,
- 47:22Speaker 12: don't stay still in your arms.
- 47:24Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 47:24Speaker 6: Yeah, there are actually some very very cute video the
- 47:28Speaker 6: reels that you'll see on Instagram with the purrito you
- 47:30Speaker 6: know your favorite you know, Taco Tuesday, your purrito stand,
- 47:34Speaker 6: you know, just a bunch of kittens lined up in
- 47:36Speaker 6: their blankets after being sad. I definitely have to text
- 47:40Speaker 6: you the shay cool so heating pack so like is
- 47:44Speaker 6: this like those chemical ones that you break apart and
- 47:46Speaker 6: they stay warm.
- 47:48Speaker 3: So we can wrap them up in a towel and
- 47:50Speaker 3: then place them on the towel.
- 47:51Speaker 12: Okay, so if you if they're in their own little
- 47:54Speaker 12: kendle like that, you couldn't fit an electric blanket and
- 47:57Speaker 12: a kennel exactly. You wrap them in towel, put it
- 48:00Speaker 12: in there and to keep it nice.
- 48:01Speaker 3: And those are pretty cheap too, by the way. Yeah,
- 48:03Speaker 3: you could probably get a case of those. Yeah, pretty cheap.
- 48:05Speaker 6: Now is that something folks can find on your wishless
- 48:08Speaker 6: as well wishless?
- 48:09Speaker 12: Yeah, it's It's one of the top items on our
- 48:11Speaker 12: general whistless right now.
- 48:12Speaker 6: And I'm always confused by this because, you know, some
- 48:15Speaker 6: some shelters say they can take toys. Some shelters say
- 48:18Speaker 6: they don't take toys because there's issues there can be,
- 48:22Speaker 6: you know, competitiveness or jealousy over toys. What's what's the
- 48:25Speaker 6: Pet Alliance's stance on donating gently used toys from cats
- 48:28Speaker 6: or dogs?
- 48:29Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, my wife's got a couple of shoe ones
- 48:31Speaker 2: get rid of.
- 48:32Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean we will take them. What we do
- 48:35Speaker 12: just so there's no issues. We always give dogs toys supervised, okay,
- 48:40Speaker 12: because you know how some will just rip them apart
- 48:41Speaker 12: really fast. Ye yeah, So we make sure it's like here,
- 48:44Speaker 12: have some fun, be a dog, enjoy your toy, but
- 48:47Speaker 12: we're gonna watch you and it's not going to stay
- 48:49Speaker 12: with you overnight.
- 48:50Speaker 3: Like how Ross deals with this child in television.
- 48:52Speaker 12: Exactly what toys we can leave with them overnight are
- 48:55Speaker 12: like nyla bones and cogs, the ones.
- 48:58Speaker 3: That are indestructible. Yeah.
- 49:00Speaker 6: Yeah, anybody with any kind of like my golden could
- 49:04Speaker 6: rip apart plushy in seconds.
- 49:06Speaker 2: My son's dog, that's what he does it for. He
- 49:08Speaker 2: just exactly straight. What if it has eyes, They're gone immediately.
- 49:12Speaker 3: And forget the squeaker surviving at all.
- 49:14Speaker 7: Absolutely, it's hard not to look into it right when
- 49:17Speaker 7: the dog only goes after the eyes.
- 49:21Speaker 3: We those squeakers are usually like sewing in around that area.
- 49:23Speaker 3: So that's why are the heart of it xact another
- 49:28Speaker 3: the soul out of it.
- 49:29Speaker 6: So could folks pictures of Memphis and get her information
- 49:32Speaker 6: on the website as well.

- 52:59Speaker 2: good friends Scott to call in. He worked for the
- 53:02Speaker 2: Orlando Sentinel. That's where he writes Wednesday, Thursdays and Sundays.
- 53:05Speaker 2: You can read his column, You guys, good in loud
- 53:07Speaker 2: for mister Sweetheat's got back? Swell my man, what's up?
- 53:14Speaker 7: Can I You know this has nothing to do with
- 53:16Speaker 7: anything except you just talked about clues and I thought
- 53:19Speaker 7: it was a funny story I would like to share
- 53:21Speaker 7: with you.
- 53:22Speaker 3: Have you guys ever done an escape room? Oh yeah,
- 53:25Speaker 3: oh yeah, yeah yeah so I so I can take
- 53:29Speaker 3: him or leave. Sometimes. I don't like the way it's
- 53:31Speaker 3: not linear. I like my my, you know, things to
- 53:33Speaker 3: be organized.
- 53:34Speaker 7: Anyway, My family did one with another family on a
- 53:38Speaker 7: cruise ship earlier this year, and as soon as we
- 53:40Speaker 7: got in there, the dad in charge, I mean the
- 53:44Speaker 7: dad for the other family, he took charge. I mean
- 53:46Speaker 7: he made it clear he was the alpha dog and
- 53:49Speaker 7: he was going to be running this show.
- 53:51Speaker 9: And uh.
- 53:54Speaker 3: What we got to make a long story short. He
- 53:56Speaker 3: took over.
- 53:56Speaker 7: I decided I'm not I don't need to fight him
- 53:58Speaker 7: on a vacation. Let it, let him do what you want,
- 54:00Speaker 7: wall have fun to our cruise ship. We got to
- 54:02Speaker 7: the end of our forty five minutes, had absolutely not
- 54:05Speaker 7: solved any of the clue and then one of his
- 54:08Speaker 7: kids at the end says, Dad, maybe one of these
- 54:11Speaker 7: days she'll solve one of these things.
- 54:13Speaker 2: Oh so this is a running thing for him.
- 54:17Speaker 3: And failing.
- 54:19Speaker 2: I had to tell you I did. We call them
- 54:22Speaker 2: the they're not escape rooms there. Uh, let's find out
- 54:24Speaker 2: if our marriage is good rooms, because because when you
- 54:28Speaker 2: go in and you do one with your wife, you
- 54:30Speaker 2: find out in a quick second. And my wife is
- 54:32Speaker 2: one of these people. My wife is there's two ways
- 54:33Speaker 2: to rebuild a room. You go in and you make
- 54:35Speaker 2: a plan, you write it down, you figure out everything
- 54:38Speaker 2: you need, you go buy that and you start your project.
- 54:41Speaker 2: My wife goes in swinging a hammer. That that's her process.
- 54:45Speaker 3: So when we go in.
- 54:46Speaker 2: We did an escape room on one of our vacations.
- 54:48Speaker 2: I think it was in Savannah, Georgia actually, and we
- 54:50Speaker 2: went up there and it was really weird because they're
- 54:52Speaker 2: in they're in very nondescript areas. It's like wherever they
- 54:56Speaker 2: can get the cheapest space is where this was. It
- 54:58Speaker 2: was like an like two hundred and fifty square feet right,
- 55:02Speaker 2: and this was like in an old office complex. When
- 55:04Speaker 2: you pulled in there, you actually thought you were lost.
- 55:07Speaker 2: And then on the door you could see the thing
- 55:09Speaker 2: for it. You walk in and it was an ass
- 55:11Speaker 2: load of fun. And it was not It was not easy.
- 55:14Speaker 2: I would have never been able to do it without
- 55:16Speaker 2: my wife there, we'd still be there right now.
- 55:18Speaker 7: Yeah, it's good to have a diverse group of people
- 55:21Speaker 7: thinking about stuff.
- 55:22Speaker 3: Yeah, and we did it.
- 55:23Speaker 2: We did another one before and we got we got
- 55:25Speaker 2: paired up with these three Asian kids and we were
- 55:28Speaker 2: out of there in thirty one seconds.
- 55:31Speaker 3: But Scott is right.
- 55:33Speaker 2: Leadership is a question when someone comes in and if
- 55:36Speaker 2: they take charge, it's like you can't have too many chiefs, right.
- 55:40Speaker 2: So it's like, okay, I'm just gonna I'll play along
- 55:42Speaker 2: and you're watching them and you're like.
- 55:44Speaker 3: We're not getting there.
- 55:45Speaker 7: I was, you know, he made it clear, and I
- 55:48Speaker 7: was like, look, all I want to do is get
- 55:49Speaker 7: back to my corona on line. So if you want
- 55:51Speaker 7: to hear this shit, that's fine, and steered it right
- 55:54Speaker 7: into the iceberg.
- 55:56Speaker 2: I'll hit the escape button and you can stay in here, buddy.
- 55:58Speaker 7: And this was say I'd have thought about saying something afterwards,
- 56:02Speaker 7: but he had his three kids within him, and I
- 56:03Speaker 7: wouldn't go to embarrass them in front of his kids.
- 56:05Speaker 2: There's a reason to It's an escape room on a
- 56:07Speaker 2: cruise that has no impact on your life. I mean,
- 56:10Speaker 2: it doesn't matter at all. That's a double escape room. Yeah,
- 56:13Speaker 2: you can't escape off the boat too. So this guy
- 56:17Speaker 2: calls us on Wednesday's talking about his column. I saw
- 56:19Speaker 2: the columns today. It's a lot of voting stuff.
- 56:23Speaker 3: We can we can talk about property you want to
- 56:26Speaker 3: talk about property tax? Well, you know we do have
- 56:28Speaker 3: the mayor coming on, Mayor of Ovito coming up at
- 56:30Speaker 3: the in the five o'clock hour. Megan Sladect is her name.
- 56:33Speaker 9: You know.
- 56:33Speaker 2: We had Art Woodroff on last week and he is
- 56:35Speaker 2: the mayor of Sandford and man.
- 56:37Speaker 3: The push they tell you about Art Woodruff.
- 56:40Speaker 7: He's a diehard Carolina fan and goes to my Carolina
- 56:44Speaker 7: basketball club meetings.
- 56:45Speaker 3: That's good people right there.
- 56:46Speaker 2: Eighth generation Sanford san Fordian.
- 56:50Speaker 3: Is that what it would be? Yeah, I don't know,
- 56:53Speaker 3: tar Heel. That's what I said, Jim.
- 56:55Speaker 2: And he had two grandfathers that were also the mayor
- 56:58Speaker 2: of Sandford, So I mean, you know, his family is
- 57:00Speaker 2: steeped and running small local government.
- 57:02Speaker 7: So I took his word for it. And he's a
- 57:05Speaker 7: smart guy. Seriously, he's a smart guy. And I don't
- 57:08Speaker 7: know if you know Megan, she's smart as well. And
- 57:10Speaker 7: she's not some old crotchety mayor. She's probably one of
- 57:14Speaker 7: the younger female mayors we have in Florida.
- 57:17Speaker 2: Yeah, and she was really anxious a matter of fact,
- 57:19Speaker 2: when after the interview with Art was done, Mayor Wood,
- 57:22Speaker 2: if I should say, he was the one I said to, look,
- 57:24Speaker 2: if you know any of these other mayors in the
- 57:26Speaker 2: area who would love to get the voice out and
- 57:28Speaker 2: kind of say to their constituents what exactly is going
- 57:31Speaker 2: to happen, or at least what could happen, you know,
- 57:33Speaker 2: feel free to do that. And man, I got an
- 57:36Speaker 2: email from Mayor Slateck that afternoon and she could not
- 57:39Speaker 2: wait to get on the air. So we'll talk to
- 57:41Speaker 2: her to five point twenty. And you know, of course,
- 57:43Speaker 2: I know that your buddy Jason Garcia also did a
- 57:46Speaker 2: giant piece in the Sentinel about it. You ford me
- 57:48Speaker 2: his number to talk about it as well. And now,
- 57:51Speaker 2: like now, the national institutions and economists are getting ahold
- 57:55Speaker 2: of this plan. And I haven't seen one person who
- 57:58Speaker 2: says it's going to benefit the people from Florida other
- 58:00Speaker 2: than you know, obviously the tax money in your pocket.
- 58:03Speaker 2: But what it costs, what's going to cost people, I'm
- 58:05Speaker 2: not sure it's being illustrated quite well.
- 58:07Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.
- 58:09Speaker 7: And so today the latest development was that virtually every
- 58:13Speaker 7: serious financial ratings firm in the country came out and said,
- 58:18Speaker 7: this is going to be bad news for cities.
- 58:20Speaker 3: We're talking about like Moody's and Fitch, these companies that.
- 58:24Speaker 7: Have been around, if not generations, maybe a century, right,
- 58:27Speaker 7: they've been doing this, and they're like, it's it's gonna
- 58:30Speaker 7: strap their bond ratings, among other things. And if you
- 58:33Speaker 7: think about it, it's it would work the same way
- 58:34Speaker 7: for you if all of a sudden, you know, you
- 58:37Speaker 7: made one hundred thousand dollars a year and then somebody said, well,
- 58:40Speaker 7: not from now on, you're gonna make seventy five thousand
- 58:42Speaker 7: dollars a year.
- 58:42Speaker 3: Old in the banks, like well, you can't do the
- 58:44Speaker 3: things you used to do.
- 58:45Speaker 7: You can't get money for to renovate your house at
- 58:48Speaker 7: the same low rate, and you can't get as much
- 58:50Speaker 7: of it to begin with. But the most interesting thing
- 58:53Speaker 7: to me that I was you and I were talking
- 58:54Speaker 7: about is so so firms like Moody's and Fitch. These
- 58:59Speaker 7: these firms don't have any ideological event. These are just finances,
- 59:03Speaker 7: that's all they can and they're coming on the heels
- 59:06Speaker 7: of pretty stern criticism from institutions like the Wall Street Journal,
- 59:11Speaker 7: which is a very conservative, one might argue the most
- 59:14Speaker 7: conservative newspaper editorial board among a major newspaper in America,
- 59:19Speaker 7: and an organization like Florida Tax Watch, which all they
- 59:22Speaker 7: do is dog taxes. And part of the reason is
- 59:26Speaker 7: one thing that everybody says is that nobody vetted this
- 59:29Speaker 7: plan or understood what the impacts was going to be.
- 59:31Speaker 7: And you know, we talked about it last week, and
- 59:34Speaker 7: afterwards I hung up. I don't always do this, but
- 59:36Speaker 7: I thought I didn't do a great job of explaining
- 59:38Speaker 7: what some of my beefs with it are because we
- 59:40Speaker 7: talked about the entitlement thing last week, and I absolutely
- 59:43Speaker 7: I believe with that you know, people don't want to
- 59:45Speaker 7: pay for the police, but they damn well expect the
- 59:47Speaker 7: police to show up when they need it. Well, you
- 59:50Speaker 7: tell me how you want to pay for them, because
- 59:52Speaker 7: it's got to be paid for one way or the other.
- 59:53Speaker 3: But the other problem with this scheme is it shifts
- 59:56Speaker 3: the burden and it totally excludes renters. Renters make up
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: a giant portion of Florida and the United States. In
- 1:00:05Speaker 3: Central Florida and an even higher percentage in Orlando, they
- 1:00:08Speaker 3: get absolutely.
- 1:00:09Speaker 7: No benefit from a homestead tax exemption. To the contrary,
- 1:00:14Speaker 7: their taxes are almost certainly going to go up because
- 1:00:17Speaker 7: that's the only thing that can be raised when the
- 1:00:19Speaker 7: residential ones get And that's the beef that like the
- 1:00:22Speaker 7: Wall Street Journal and groups like Florida TaxWatch talk about.
- 1:00:25Speaker 7: This is a major shifting. It's almost a many Bernie
- 1:00:28Speaker 7: Sanders in some ways. It's a shifting of more of
- 1:00:31Speaker 7: the taxes to the institutions and the businesses and a
- 1:00:35Speaker 7: rental problem.
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and I do believe, you know, and we
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: get it. Pushback on it really bad. I mean the
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: interview with Mayor woodruff Man the texting service absolutely melted
- 1:00:45Speaker 2: it down, and very few people were saying, hey, look,
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: you know, you know I'm not for this, you know,
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: because people see the number and they think those I'm
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: not talking to my wife about this one hundred times
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: because she goes, well, how do you expect people who
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: when you're telling them they're going to have another three
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: or four or thousand dollars in their pocket every year?
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: How do you expect them to vote against that when
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: when you know, all the other stuff you say isn't
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: affecting them on their daily basis as they see it.
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: Like in other words, you know, I don't have to
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: take my kids to the park, you know, I don't
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: have to do these things that the that our money
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: pays for, the property taxes pay for. I would rather
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: have that money in my pocket. I would rather have
- 1:01:18Speaker 2: that three grand or two grand or eighteen hundred, whatever
- 1:01:20Speaker 2: it is.
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: Back in my pocket.
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: And and it's hard to argue that, but and again,
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: I just want it would be nice if somebody can
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: illustrate exactly what's going to happen. That's why we've invited
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: these mayors to come on. And even when we invite
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: them on, most of the feedback that we've gotten is, well,
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: they need to learn how to spend the money better. Yeah,
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: they need to learn how to you know, commissioners don't
- 1:01:40Speaker 2: need to make that much or you know, we don't
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: maybe we don't need garbage pickup, or maybe we don't
- 1:01:44Speaker 2: need this or whatever.
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: And I'm like, well, you guys, if.
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: You're headed for a pay for kind of scenario, I mean,
- 1:01:49Speaker 2: are you gonna take your garbage to the dump every month,
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: every week? Are you gonna do that? You're gonna load up?
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: Are you gonna take it there? Are you gonna do
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: all these things?
- 1:01:56Speaker 7: Are you?
- 1:01:56Speaker 3: Are you?
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: Are you willing to pay to get into thirty dollars
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: to what your kids play baseball? Because that's what it
- 1:02:01Speaker 2: costs to turn of lights on and cut the grass
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: and pay for the insurance policy in case he gets hurt.
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: I mean, these are all things you have to consider.
- 1:02:07Speaker 2: But most people, even when faced with that, they'll go,
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: I'll figure I'll figure it out. I just want that
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: money in my bucket.
- 1:02:13Speaker 3: Yeah, Jack, where you were gonna say.
- 1:02:15Speaker 2: So, it's just the uh, it's so shortsighted. A lot
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: of people think I don't use that, so it doesn't
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: affect me. And I even saw the post saying well,
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: why am I I don't have kids in the school,
- 1:02:30Speaker 2: Why am I paying school taxes? Because we all benefit
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: from an educated populacet.
- 1:02:34Speaker 7: Well what did what did that person do? Just out
- 1:02:37Speaker 7: of curiosity from age five to eighteen? Because that point,
- 1:02:41Speaker 7: lot of people who go I don't have kids, so
- 1:02:43Speaker 7: I should I pay for taxes?
- 1:02:44Speaker 3: Well, who the hell paid for you to go to school?
- 1:02:47Speaker 7: Pal, I'm just curious, how do you think that works?
- 1:02:50Speaker 7: And you know, Jim, I think you remember the first
- 1:02:52Speaker 7: thing I said to you was I think this is
- 1:02:54Speaker 7: going to pass. I will be very surprised if this
- 1:02:56Speaker 7: does not pass. And when we talked about it last week,
- 1:03:00Speaker 7: one of the few times where people like took their
- 1:03:03Speaker 7: frustration from listening to the radio to my email and
- 1:03:06Speaker 7: they were like, I normally agree with you, but I'm
- 1:03:08Speaker 7: voting for this one because my taxes have shot up,
- 1:03:10Speaker 7: and by the way, they haven't shot up. I mean,
- 1:03:13Speaker 7: if you own the home, that's literally impossible. There's a
- 1:03:16Speaker 7: cap we have to save our homes that's been in
- 1:03:18Speaker 7: place for three You may think they're too high. You
- 1:03:20Speaker 7: may even be right that they're too high, But I
- 1:03:22Speaker 7: think a lot of people look at the total costs
- 1:03:24Speaker 7: they have to live in a house. Things like insurance
- 1:03:27Speaker 7: which have absolutely shot up sometimes twenty or thirty percent
- 1:03:30Speaker 7: a year.
- 1:03:31Speaker 3: But your homes, your taxes on your homes cannot buy
- 1:03:34Speaker 3: law go up more than three or four percent, yeah,
- 1:03:37Speaker 3: per year whatever something like that.
- 1:03:38Speaker 17: Right.
- 1:03:38Speaker 6: Well, unfortunately it's an election year and they needed a
- 1:03:41Speaker 6: win to be able to go back to constituents and say,
- 1:03:44Speaker 6: look at what we did this for you. And so
- 1:03:47Speaker 6: they can't go after the insurance companies because again it's
- 1:03:49Speaker 6: an election year, right yeah, they need that money to
- 1:03:52Speaker 6: fill their coffers. So instead they come up with this plan,
- 1:03:55Speaker 6: which is robbing Peter to pay Paul.
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: I mean, here's the thing. Cost is going to go
- 1:04:00Speaker 2: up somewhere. That's that's another thing. And I hope that
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: may are really like, your cost has got to go
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: up somewhere. I mean, if you want any of these
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: services in your counties or your cities, they're going to
- 1:04:09Speaker 2: have to create your building permits maybe go from one
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: hundred and fifty dollars to four hundred dollars or or
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: you know, maybe that happens. Your sales tax goes up
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: in your county, your gas tax goes up in your county.
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: The money will have to be made to even pay
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: for basic services in counties. And I just hope people see.
- 1:04:23Speaker 7: That you know, those are actually those are very good,
- 1:04:28Speaker 7: very concrete and very realistic examples. And by the way,
- 1:04:32Speaker 7: those are also become more regressive taxes when you talk
- 1:04:35Speaker 7: about sales taxes. And I think part of the you know,
- 1:04:37Speaker 7: the TB is is we've got this sort of dialogue
- 1:04:40Speaker 7: that this rhetoric that's so extreme, like people will say
- 1:04:43Speaker 7: it's theft, you have to pay taxes on my house. Well,
- 1:04:47Speaker 7: I mean you've paid taxes for all of your life,
- 1:04:49Speaker 7: every time you've bought a Coca Cola, every time you
- 1:04:52Speaker 7: bought a new air conditioning unit, a new car, every
- 1:04:55Speaker 7: time you bought a gallon of gas. That's that's how
- 1:04:58Speaker 7: I mean. I keep coming back to this line. We're
- 1:05:00Speaker 7: running a society here, pal, Yeah, I mean there are ways.
- 1:05:03Speaker 7: If you want to go retreat to you know, a
- 1:05:05Speaker 7: thousand acres in Montana, you can probably start your own commune.
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: But if you're living in.
- 1:05:10Speaker 7: A place that has sewer systems, yeah, the garbage pickup,
- 1:05:14Speaker 7: electricity ops, that has paramedics that you expect to be
- 1:05:16Speaker 7: at your house within five to ten minutes when you
- 1:05:19Speaker 7: have a heart attack.
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: That's where this that's how we pay for this stuff.
- 1:05:22Speaker 7: You know, off of the narratives, So it kind of
- 1:05:24Speaker 7: sounds like it's we're trying our best to go the
- 1:05:29Speaker 7: Netflix Hulu a la carte option, that's what's being proposed
- 1:05:34Speaker 7: as in like, hey, instead of one thing, now it's
- 1:05:37Speaker 7: just going to probably cost more overall, but now it's
- 1:05:40Speaker 7: going to be like, now you get to choose sort
- 1:05:42Speaker 7: of thing. Am I picking up on that kind of correctly,
- 1:05:45Speaker 7: like an a la carte scenario exactly? Yeah, I mean
- 1:05:49Speaker 7: there's there's some of that, but but I think when
- 1:05:52Speaker 7: Jim just mentioned like the building fee, that's a that's
- 1:05:55Speaker 7: a really solid example. So your average person ross isn't
- 1:05:58Speaker 7: going to be probably choosing a building permit, but that's
- 1:06:00Speaker 7: going to absolutely have an impact on building in general
- 1:06:04Speaker 7: if your fees double or triple.
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: On those kind of things.
- 1:06:07Speaker 7: So yeah, And the thing that I find interesting, the
- 1:06:10Speaker 7: one thing that's made me a little more interested in
- 1:06:12Speaker 7: discussing this than I probably would have, because I was
- 1:06:14Speaker 7: probably just gonna write it off and say this is
- 1:06:16Speaker 7: going to pass, is I have found it interesting that
- 1:06:18Speaker 7: solid economists and conservative thinkers have come in and said
- 1:06:23Speaker 7: this is a terrible idea. Yeah, and when you have
- 1:06:26Speaker 7: the Wall Street Journal, I mean, and they use they
- 1:06:28Speaker 7: sounded sad when they were writing this edatorial They used
- 1:06:31Speaker 7: words like, we're disappointed on the sands. But this is
- 1:06:36Speaker 7: not the way a thinking finance person does things. And
- 1:06:39Speaker 7: you know what, if it was a smart plan, you
- 1:06:41Speaker 7: wouldn't need to start and convene a special session in
- 1:06:45Speaker 7: twenty eight hours, which is the grand total of time
- 1:06:48Speaker 7: they used to discuss.
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: To me, that's the dead giveaway of the entire thing
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: is how quickly it was kind of cobbled together and
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: then thrown out there. And then of course, when you
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: have a Republican dominated you know, House and Senate, you
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: know it's going to make it through, you know, I mean,
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: it just has to be put up there for the
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: most part, if it's not completely brain dead. But I
- 1:07:03Speaker 2: am kind of interested in how it got through so
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: quickly and how it got on the ballot so fast.
- 1:07:08Speaker 2: But you know, and look, the last one I saw it,
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: I saw a pole that said, you know, and they
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: took a they basically asked would you vote for it?
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: It was an eighty percent approval.
- 1:07:17Speaker 3: That's what I expect.
- 1:07:18Speaker 7: And here's another thing to watch out for that we
- 1:07:20Speaker 7: haven't even talked about yet is do you remember that
- 1:07:22Speaker 7: whole Hope, Florida scandal. We don't need to get into
- 1:07:25Speaker 7: all that, but it was basically about sending state taxpayer
- 1:07:28Speaker 7: money to help defeat an amendment.
- 1:07:31Speaker 3: In that case, it was a marijuana and abortion.
- 1:07:34Speaker 7: I'm going to be keeping an eye on how much
- 1:07:36Speaker 7: state taxpayer money is spent to help pass this thing,
- 1:07:40Speaker 7: because it's part of the governor's agenda, and the irony
- 1:07:43Speaker 7: in that will be incredibly rich. For using tax money
- 1:07:46Speaker 7: to defeat a propos I mean to pass the proposal.
- 1:07:48Speaker 7: It's predicated upon the notion that local officials are rating and.
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: By the way, people are Texan as we're talking about this,
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: and like what about schools? This does not touch schools.
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: And by the way, the lottery and people like, well,
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: does the lottery pay for schools? Yes, it was supposed
- 1:08:02Speaker 2: to initially subsidize it. But now that's all of it,
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: that's all of it.
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: That's all of it.
- 1:08:06Speaker 7: So that the lottery was a shell game, right, And
- 1:08:08Speaker 7: the only reason we mentioned schools was, as you said,
- 1:08:10Speaker 7: one of you mentioned that people are like, why do
- 1:08:12Speaker 7: I pay for schools? Yeah, that is a point. But yes,
- 1:08:15Speaker 7: the lottery. We've written about this a lot of times.
- 1:08:17Speaker 7: It was a shell game. It's called the edited Education Lottery.
- 1:08:20Speaker 7: There used to be money that was designated for schools.
- 1:08:22Speaker 7: They stopped using that replaced it with the lottery. The
- 1:08:25Speaker 7: Orlando Sentinel did an in depth investigation about ten years
- 1:08:28Speaker 7: ago and found that twenty years after the lottery had started,
- 1:08:31Speaker 7: Florida was actually spending a lower portion of its budget
- 1:08:35Speaker 7: on education than before it started the quote education lottery.
- 1:08:39Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 1:08:40Speaker 18: Yeah.
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: And then you know, occasionally when we do mention this.
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: I got the last time, we got a text that
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: came in and said, look, I'll protect my own house.
- 1:08:46Speaker 2: I'll put out my own fires. I don't need the cops,
- 1:08:49Speaker 2: I don't need a fire department. I can take care
- 1:08:51Speaker 2: of all that myself.
- 1:08:52Speaker 9: You know.
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: I want to own my property outright and all this
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: other stuff. And I was like, look, man, I mean
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: I understand what you're saying. The problem is that you
- 1:08:58Speaker 2: live in the US, and unfortunately we and to run
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: this society. Like you're saying, it takes tax money to
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: do that. Property taxes, I think raise what's seventy two
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: percent when you look nationwide of the taxes that keep
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: communities going, or it's some ridiculous number of that nature
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: I was reading this morning, but it is. It is
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: just it is the basis of how we keep these
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: communities running.
- 1:09:18Speaker 7: I'll leave you with this. I know we got to
- 1:09:19Speaker 7: wrap things up. I really like that you're talking to
- 1:09:22Speaker 7: mayors because that's the question I've been asking.
- 1:09:23Speaker 3: What's going to change?
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: Right?
- 1:09:25Speaker 7: You know, just be honest and don't We don't nobody
- 1:09:27Speaker 7: wants sky is falling, chicken little stuff.
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: What's actually going to change?
- 1:09:31Speaker 7: I've said before I don't think Orange County is going
- 1:09:32Speaker 7: to have a gigantic impact at the way these bedroom
- 1:09:36Speaker 7: communities are going to get absolutely slaughtered. Vito doesn't have
- 1:09:40Speaker 7: massive manufacturing. DeBerry doesn't have massive manufacturing. What they have
- 1:09:44Speaker 7: is residential property taxes. But the last thing I'll make
- 1:09:47Speaker 7: is it's very interesting there are a number of former
- 1:09:50Speaker 7: Republican lawmakers legislators.
- 1:09:52Speaker 3: Who are now mayors in towns around Florida. Ask them
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: what they think of this.
- 1:09:58Speaker 7: Yeah, I have yet to hear mayor say this is
- 1:10:01Speaker 7: gonna be great for our community or our condom.
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: Scott, my number one thing with this entire thing is
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: no one has made a cogent argument for it. Not
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: that's the number one thing. Like, And I'm catching so
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: much hell in the texting service with us right now.
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: The show is saying it's all doom and gloom. The
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: issue is I haven't heard one person, not a ranking Republican,
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: not a former Republican, not an economist that we know
- 1:10:23Speaker 2: we can trust. Not one person has stood up and
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: said this is gonna be great for the state. And
- 1:10:28Speaker 2: here's how, and here's why, Here's where this money is
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: gonna come from, Here's what it's going to replace, here's
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: how we're gonna keep these communities going while we get
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: rid of this. And I'm doing air quotes here. This
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: fraud and abuse thing that we hear all the time,
- 1:10:40Speaker 2: we're gonna this is how we're gonna do that. Nothing
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: not one syllable about it at all.
- 1:10:45Speaker 7: And stay like And if you don't like what Jim's
- 1:10:47Speaker 7: saying or what I'm saying, or what Jack's saying, nobody
- 1:10:49Speaker 7: likes what Jack saying. Yeah, just google Wall Street Journal editorial,
- 1:10:55Speaker 7: Florida property text.
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: Just google reread this.
- 1:10:57Speaker 7: These are people who are hard core conservatives, fiscal conservatives
- 1:11:02Speaker 7: and they predict chaos and they say it was incredibly
- 1:11:05Speaker 7: poorly thought out.
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: But yeah, by the way, we said. The Polk County
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: Property Appraiser website has a breakdown of how much less
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: revenue each government entity will lose if property taxes are cut.
- 1:11:14Speaker 2: Some of these small communities are going to get raped.
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: That's the word he used. That's not my words. But Scott,
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: we always love hearing from you, man. You can read
- 1:11:21Speaker 2: his columns every single Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday. You guys,
- 1:11:24Speaker 2: give up good loud for mister Scott Maxwell.

- 1:12:13Speaker 2: Usually not one to really stick up for Ross, but
- 1:12:17Speaker 2: you seemed a little dismissive about what about him being
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: a model, Like you kind of just threw that aside, like, yeah,
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: you could be a model kind of deal. I mean,
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: I guess I don't know.
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: Go to do what I did.

- 1:12:32Speaker 2: that picture, that pic.
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: That guy could be a model. I could be a model.
- 1:12:37Speaker 3: But here's the problem.
- 1:12:39Speaker 7: I smoked new Ports for twelve years and it shows,
- 1:12:43Speaker 7: and I didn't rock a lot of SPF during tournament
- 1:12:46Speaker 7: golf days. So my son's been beaten by vitamin D
- 1:12:50Speaker 7: and it's been destroyed by menthol cigarettes.
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: So you might not be around up for long, but
- 1:12:57Speaker 3: that short window you have you could get some gigs. God, dude,
- 1:13:01Speaker 3: a new Port. Sorry my bad.
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: You crave cigarette still every now and then, especially when
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: I'm hammered.
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, everybody wants have you.
- 1:13:11Speaker 7: Ever tried to quit. No, you've never tried to go
- 1:13:14Speaker 7: me smoking cigarettes? No, I mean I don't smoke sig.
- 1:13:17Speaker 7: I have a cigarette and probably I don't know one.
- 1:13:19Speaker 7: Was the last time I asked one from you?
- 1:13:21Speaker 8: Dead?
- 1:13:22Speaker 3: Five six years? Yeah, it's been a minute. Yeah, she
- 1:13:24Speaker 3: was gonna say five minutes.
- 1:13:25Speaker 2: Were you a regular smoker in today?
- 1:13:27Speaker 8: Oh?
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: Yeah, dude, I was.
- 1:13:29Speaker 7: I was blowing ports through my nose, like packa day
- 1:13:31Speaker 7: type thing. Yeah, basically in the teens. Yeah, and if
- 1:13:34Speaker 7: I had two beers. Yeah, we can say goodbye to
- 1:13:37Speaker 7: a pack? Was cyonaro seven bucks?
- 1:13:39Speaker 3: Hey? That was twenty fourteen prices? Come back here?
- 1:13:41Speaker 4: Raise?
- 1:13:42Speaker 8: Was it?
- 1:13:42Speaker 3: How much just make a cigarette?
- 1:13:43Speaker 4: Though? Oh?
- 1:13:44Speaker 3: Man?
- 1:13:44Speaker 6: I mean you can get points and it depends on
- 1:13:46Speaker 6: where you get them. Oh really yeah, anywhere from seven
- 1:13:50Speaker 6: to hours. Yeah, you buy him by the carton?
- 1:13:53Speaker 4: Though?
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: Is that what you do? You don't?
- 1:13:54Speaker 5: Why not?
- 1:13:54Speaker 2: Don't you get a better deal?
- 1:13:56Speaker 9: Uh?
- 1:13:56Speaker 3: Probably just don't want to lay that much money out
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: right away?
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: Interesting? Yeah, because I know where you go to, like
- 1:14:01Speaker 2: if you're part of the one of the box stores.
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: I think Costco and Sam's. Don't they sell them or no?
- 1:14:06Speaker 2: I never looked.
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll be for real.
- 1:14:08Speaker 7: The one time I bought a cart and I was like,
- 1:14:10Speaker 7: never again, because I was I was throwing them away.
- 1:14:14Speaker 3: I was like, I'm rich.
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: It's so funny when I used to want my wife smoke.
- 1:14:18Speaker 2: I'm cigarette rich. When my wife's went like in prison,
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: when my wife smoked my like it was the common trope,
- 1:14:24Speaker 2: and it was like, She'll send me a text, hey,
- 1:14:26Speaker 2: pick me up a cup back of cigarettes on the
- 1:14:27Speaker 2: way home. Pick me up a cup back of cigarette
- 1:14:29Speaker 2: on the way home. And then after a while I
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: would just show up and realize I was pretty much
- 1:14:34Speaker 2: always going to have to pick up back couple bags
- 1:14:36Speaker 2: of cigarettes.
- 1:14:37Speaker 3: Right.
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: So I remember I bought her a cart and a
- 1:14:39Speaker 2: cigarettes one time and she got super piste off at me.
- 1:14:42Speaker 2: She goes, I don't want that many. It makes me
- 1:14:43Speaker 2: feel like I have a problem.
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: No, she did, she did.
- 1:14:47Speaker 2: She says, I don't want that many because it makes
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: me think I have a smoking problem. And I just
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: smoke a couple pack of day. I'm fine.
- 1:14:52Speaker 3: You missed the play.
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: The play is you buy the cart and a cigarettes
- 1:14:55Speaker 2: and you keep it in your car, and then every
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: time she says bring me a couple home, you taken
- 1:15:00Speaker 2: out of the car and then that saves you five trips.
- 1:15:04Speaker 3: In a nutshell.
- 1:15:05Speaker 7: I feel exactly that same vein for that emotional reaction.
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: I don't buy me a carton. Yeah yeah, now I
- 1:15:14Speaker 3: feel like really bad.
- 1:15:15Speaker 7: That's also why I've never quit, or even really tried
- 1:15:19Speaker 7: quitting nicotine, because I am so afraid of finding out
- 1:15:23Speaker 7: how bad it really is.
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: Well, I will tell you, buddy.
- 1:15:26Speaker 2: She tried to quit five times before she was finally
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: able to kick it, and it was there was I
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: think the third time, if I remember, right was downright sad.
- 1:15:35Speaker 2: I mean it was downright sad. It really was, because
- 1:15:38Speaker 2: I remember walking into the bedroom. She's sitting on the
- 1:15:40Speaker 2: edge of the bed. She has her head in her hands,
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: like she'd just gotten the worst news of all time.
- 1:15:47Speaker 2: And I'm like a regular, like a guy, like I forget.
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: I was like, baby, what's wrong? And she just lifted
- 1:15:53Speaker 2: her head up and she looked miserable. She had been crying.
- 1:15:58Speaker 3: She was like shaky.
- 1:16:00Speaker 2: She's like, I don't know what to do. I don't
- 1:16:02Speaker 2: know what to do, Like I feel this drive and
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: cravy inside and I know I'm not supposed to do it,
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: but I don't know what to do, and I just
- 1:16:10Speaker 2: got in my car and on we got to back
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: her cigarette cigarettes and I gave her a cigarette. I'm like,
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: it's gonna get easier. You're making good.
- 1:16:16Speaker 3: I mean this. It was like the third day.
- 1:16:18Speaker 2: She hadn't smoked her second day and she was coming
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: in glue.
- 1:16:20Speaker 4: Dude.
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: Yeah, she was literally coming on glue and to the table.
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: And she wasn't even like she wasn't smoking three packs
- 1:16:25Speaker 2: a day or anything. She spoke a back of day
- 1:16:27Speaker 2: maybe maybe sometimes not even that.
- 1:16:28Speaker 9: Uh.
- 1:16:29Speaker 7: I mean, I'll share this fully regret this nicotine addiction.
- 1:16:34Speaker 7: Really wish I didn't have it. Yeah, like I could
- 1:16:37Speaker 7: say it with the smile because I'm a crazy person,
- 1:16:40Speaker 7: I guess. But absolutely all the times when I was
- 1:16:43Speaker 7: young and older people telling me like, don't do this,
- 1:16:46Speaker 7: uh yeah, they were right.
- 1:16:48Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: My son got on that whole thing. He told me
- 1:16:49Speaker 2: as well. He goes uh cause he was doing the
- 1:16:51Speaker 2: vaping thing and he's like, look, man, I look it is.
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: I hate this.
- 1:16:54Speaker 2: And he's like, I hate it. But if I don't,
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: if I don't hit that vape pen, if I don't
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: get that nicotine, I hate that more. And but he's
- 1:17:02Speaker 2: finally starting to slowly wean himself off. And I'm actually
- 1:17:05Speaker 2: I don't think he does them anymore. It took him
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: a year. Yeah, yeah, I'm all about it, dude. I'll
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: I'll butt chug some some chant text.
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: Man, I don't. And that's a weird thing too, by
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: the way, the shat thing, Yeah yeah, I had a
- 1:17:18Speaker 3: friend who did it, and uh, he never really recovered.
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, my mother in law did it. It
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: scared her death. Jack, How did you quit? By the way,
- 1:17:24Speaker 2: because you smoke back in the day, right, I smoke
- 1:17:26Speaker 2: for three minutes yea and nothing all right?
- 1:17:29Speaker 3: Four seven? It's like, what, oh you got to pay
- 1:17:31Speaker 3: for it? Do you ever did?
- 1:17:35Speaker 8: What?
- 1:17:35Speaker 3: Do you not regret?
- 1:17:37Speaker 7: It's not like you wake up every morning going like
- 1:17:39Speaker 7: It's not like I spend every hour going like, oh
- 1:17:41Speaker 7: I wish I didn't do this.
- 1:17:43Speaker 3: But do you wish you'd never started? Yeah, I guess
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: that's the question.
- 1:17:45Speaker 2: No, she doesn't hurt her mom. Boy, they love it.
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: I mean it's like a kind of a bonding thing, isn't.
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: It you guys, I wouldn't say that, But I don't
- 1:17:54Speaker 3: regret it. Yeah? Yeah, why not?
- 1:17:58Speaker 6: Because it's something I could change and if I regretted it,
- 1:18:00Speaker 6: then I would change it. So why spend the energy
- 1:18:03Speaker 6: regretting something you're not willing to change?
- 1:18:05Speaker 3: Some people just really enjoy it because I don't.
- 1:18:07Speaker 7: I would make the argument is because the the addiction
- 1:18:10Speaker 7: aspect of it is that that it would be out
- 1:18:14Speaker 7: of our control.
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: How much do you smoke it? Control is an illusion?
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: What's the average like a packa day smoker? I'm curious
- 1:18:23Speaker 2: what the total cost is just in cigarettes alone, not
- 1:18:27Speaker 2: not even help benefits what you're paying for cigarettes alone?
- 1:18:31Speaker 4: What a.
- 1:18:40Speaker 3: Pick your addiction right, exactly?
- 1:18:42Speaker 7: Like anybody can get addicted to anything, but I'm not
- 1:18:46Speaker 7: like TV and nicotine are too radically That's the reason
- 1:18:50Speaker 7: why cocaine is radically illegal if it wasn't so addictive.
- 1:18:56Speaker 7: I mean, that's just going off of American history when
- 1:18:59Speaker 7: it comes to there, once was a time when it
- 1:19:01Speaker 7: was like socially accept it was.
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: Gen Z is bringing it back unfortunately.
- 1:19:07Speaker 6: I mean, I don't you guys know if you guys
- 1:19:09Speaker 6: remember the cigarette thing and the video that we watched
- 1:19:12Speaker 6: for what you do that's new of those two young
- 1:19:14Speaker 6: kids riding their motorbikes across China. Yeah, and they were
- 1:19:18Speaker 6: smoking cigarettes. And they had commented to each other about
- 1:19:21Speaker 6: how cool they look, and I was like, boys.
- 1:19:25Speaker 3: That, no, you don't hello to the forties, fifties and sixties.
- 1:19:28Speaker 4: No.
- 1:19:28Speaker 6: I was just thinking, you guys look like you have
- 1:19:30Speaker 6: no idea what you're doing and why are you doing this?
- 1:19:33Speaker 6: I mean, you have decades of proof as to why
- 1:19:36Speaker 6: you shouldn't be doing this, But for some reason, the
- 1:19:39Speaker 6: gen z is bringing it back.
- 1:19:41Speaker 3: All right, it's a shame.
- 1:19:42Speaker 2: Packa day is three grand a year and eight bucks
- 1:19:45Speaker 2: a pack, and for fifty seven years, if you smoke
- 1:19:49Speaker 2: for that much, it would be one hundred and sixty
- 1:19:51Speaker 2: six thousand dollars.
- 1:19:52Speaker 6: Well, the good news is I did not smoke coming
- 1:19:54Speaker 6: out of the womb, so a quarter. I'm okay with that,
- 1:19:58Speaker 6: all right?
- 1:19:59Speaker 2: Four seven nine one of four one text seven seven

- 1:21:49Speaker 2: and Ross are here as well. All right, So this
- 1:21:53Speaker 2: is what I learned this morning that I did not
- 1:21:55Speaker 2: know happen for men or for women. Now can we say,
- 1:21:59Speaker 2: I mean, can you think of anything that is usually
- 1:22:02Speaker 2: when you hear about it, it's specifically. God, there's no
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: way to do this. I'll just do it like this,
- 1:22:07Speaker 2: all right. What do we know about massage parlors?
- 1:22:12Speaker 3: Oh? The happy ending?
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: Some of them, right, we've heard have happy ending exactly now.
- 1:22:17Speaker 2: Some of them, of course, we know the ones that
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: we hear advertise are above board there. They're therapeutic massages,
- 1:22:23Speaker 2: whether it be your deep tissue or Swedish massage, you
- 1:22:26Speaker 2: go in there. They're very well established brands. What are
- 1:22:30Speaker 2: some of those brands out there?
- 1:22:31Speaker 3: What are one?
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: Massa massage? Inv's one from and in Stone is another
- 1:22:36Speaker 2: as well. But the happy ending thing is the question
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: here okay, have it's primarily when you hear about the
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: happy ending, who is the customer the dude?
- 1:22:48Speaker 3: It's a dude. Right.
- 1:22:49Speaker 2: Have you ever heard of a massage parlor that does
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: female happy endings. That's not a thing. Right, We've never
- 1:22:58Speaker 2: heard of that, have we.
- 1:22:59Speaker 7: I haven't heard of it, but I would assume that
- 1:23:01Speaker 7: it's happened a handful of times.
- 1:23:02Speaker 2: We get assume the other happens. We don't even know. Really,
- 1:23:07Speaker 2: I mean, we can just as Sue. We do know
- 1:23:08Speaker 2: because Robert Kraft. Yeah, but we do know that happens
- 1:23:11Speaker 2: because people have been busted doing it. Now one time
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: have I ever heard in my life that there are
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: happy endings for females at massage parlors?
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: Until this morning.
- 1:23:20Speaker 2: This morning, I was on Instagram kind of flipping around,
- 1:23:22Speaker 2: and a woman basically talks about her experience at a
- 1:23:25Speaker 2: massage parlor. She's in an open relationship with her husband,
- 1:23:29Speaker 2: so there's no issue here. She talked openly about it
- 1:23:31Speaker 2: and how she went to talk about my algorithm at
- 1:23:36Speaker 2: kittens Wrapped in Blankets. It went to a massage parlor,
- 1:23:40Speaker 2: massage parlor and got a happy ending from a guy,
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: like a guy tweaked her or whatever. I don't think
- 1:23:50Speaker 2: it wasn't.
- 1:23:53Speaker 6: A second.
- 1:23:53Speaker 3: It wasn't sex. They didn't have sex. It was the pause.
- 1:23:59Speaker 3: His ears dry. He's doing some deadline there. Women used
- 1:24:02Speaker 3: to just have to go to the doctor for that.
- 1:24:04Speaker 3: I know that's right. I think the mayor just turned around. Great,
- 1:24:09Speaker 3: But they think about massages. Dude, people get turned on.
- 1:24:12Speaker 3: It's a physical not everyone.
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: But but it's wild that we've had these conversations about
- 1:24:17Speaker 2: guys for years. Guys, for years we've talked about the
- 1:24:20Speaker 2: happy it's a running joke. The fact that deb knew
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: immediately happy ending, and never once have we ever assumed
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: that this happens for women.
- 1:24:28Speaker 6: No, why men mistaking a woman's orgasm? Oh my god, Jimmy,
- 1:24:33Speaker 6: this just happened, jim breaking news.
- 1:24:35Speaker 3: What have you ever heard of this? The first time?
- 1:24:37Speaker 2: Have you ever heard of a woman going to massage
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: parlor to get pleasured? I know nobody has.
- 1:24:42Speaker 7: I don't think of that would be And there's the
- 1:24:45Speaker 7: reason why. It's because it's less than one percent of
- 1:24:48Speaker 7: the instances. Nine percent of the time it's going to
- 1:24:52Speaker 7: be a dude.
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: I mean, you know this.
- 1:24:55Speaker 7: It's the same reason why she knew about happy ending.
- 1:24:57Speaker 7: It's because there's going to be a screaming mind minority
- 1:25:00Speaker 7: of the time where a woman would be getting the
- 1:25:02Speaker 7: happy ending.
- 1:25:04Speaker 3: That's a trust issue, right.
- 1:25:05Speaker 7: I would think it's because dudes are, uh, kind of piggy.
- 1:25:09Speaker 7: We're a little pig like sometimes. Also it doesn't take
- 1:25:12Speaker 7: much yeah, and uh once the blood starts flowing south
- 1:25:16Speaker 7: all of a sudden, I think priorities can change real quickly.
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: Not every guy. And it goes back to the safety issue.
- 1:25:22Speaker 6: I would say, I go in for someone to pleasure me,
- 1:25:24Speaker 6: and I end up something horrible could end up happening.
- 1:25:27Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, But I mean just the idea
- 1:25:31Speaker 2: that that's something like we've talked about men even instituting
- 1:25:34Speaker 2: this in the parlor, like these little there used to
- 1:25:36Speaker 2: be a joke on the monsters and be like, yeah,
- 1:25:38Speaker 2: you know, there's one hundred dollars of my boot, you
- 1:25:39Speaker 2: know type thing, or ten bucks of my boot or whatever.
- 1:25:41Speaker 2: And the whole idea was there's an extra little something
- 1:25:44Speaker 2: in this for you if there's a little something in
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: it for me. But I've never heard that same kind
- 1:25:49Speaker 2: of mentality flipped on its end and had that apply
- 1:25:52Speaker 2: to women. Where a man, a male massage therapist while
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: giving a massage to a woman. By the way, which
- 1:25:57Speaker 2: my wife has got do me just have a realization
- 1:26:06Speaker 2: she likes the massage guys, marsage guys. But we're saying,
- 1:26:11Speaker 2: but I could not imagine a woman getting a massage
- 1:26:14Speaker 2: from like a professional massuse and then having that even
- 1:26:19Speaker 2: kind of approached, like, how would a male masseuse even
- 1:26:24Speaker 2: offer that as a service. Oh, by the way, we
- 1:26:27Speaker 2: provide this as.
- 1:26:28Speaker 3: Well, area. Oh really, I don't know. Well, no, that's
- 1:26:32Speaker 3: exactly what the dudes do. More, I mean, I can't say.
- 1:26:38Speaker 7: I mean, there's no universal way of saying it. Jim,
- 1:26:41Speaker 7: what this weird toy story route? I don't get it either.
- 1:26:44Speaker 7: There's a ten dollars in bold.
- 1:26:51Speaker 3: I know only if only seen toy story. I know
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: it's the joke of there's a snake and mummy. He's
- 1:26:57Speaker 3: never seen toy story.
- 1:26:58Speaker 7: No, it's not just a first just the first one
- 1:27:01Speaker 7: completely changes the whole Andy's coming.
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: You don't even know what happens when the toys.
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: Do you think that our wives would even tell us
- 1:27:16Speaker 2: if they were if they were approaching would you tell
- 1:27:18Speaker 2: your wife if you got a happy ending in a
- 1:27:21Speaker 2: massage no, No, I would definitely, I mean I would
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: never get one.
- 1:27:24Speaker 7: But what I'm saying is you almost fell into that
- 1:27:26Speaker 7: stuff that was masterful marriage.
- 1:27:31Speaker 3: That was like Olympic skydiving right there.
- 1:27:33Speaker 2: I would never get one. But the thing is is
- 1:27:35Speaker 2: that even if someone like asked me to do that,
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: Like if anybody said, hey, by the way, I offer
- 1:27:39Speaker 2: the service as well, I don't know if I'd ever
- 1:27:41Speaker 2: tell my wife about it.
- 1:27:42Speaker 6: I don't think they would offer that because it's still
- 1:27:44Speaker 6: being against the law. It would have to be something
- 1:27:46Speaker 6: I would assume that would be instigated by the customer,
- 1:27:50Speaker 6: right because anything else. I mean, I mean, you offer
- 1:27:53Speaker 6: that service and that person that you're massaging is an
- 1:27:55Speaker 6: undercover detective, and I mean you could be causing yourself
- 1:27:58Speaker 6: a whole lot of problems. Yeah, is that's where the
- 1:28:01Speaker 6: whole joke of there's ten dollars in my boots only.
- 1:28:06Speaker 3: Only a sith speaks in absolute stuff.
- 1:28:08Speaker 7: Of course, the majority of the time, it's definitely the
- 1:28:11Speaker 7: guy the massage, the guy getting massage.
- 1:28:13Speaker 3: He's like, well, what about you know down.
- 1:28:19Speaker 7: I was wondering if like there's like a Tijuana thing
- 1:28:24Speaker 7: you have a Crutchell program, but I have one friend
- 1:28:29Speaker 7: and I won't say his name. You guys don't know him,
- 1:28:31Speaker 7: but he had the whole happy ending, really he did.
- 1:28:35Speaker 7: And he was walked up to We were right out
- 1:28:39Speaker 7: of a strip club and all of a sudden, this
- 1:28:41Speaker 7: is my favorite phone call I've ever gotten from this
- 1:28:43Speaker 7: guy because it started off with dude, okay last night,
- 1:28:49Speaker 7: and I'll never forget. But we got out of a
- 1:28:52Speaker 7: strip club. We were like twenty three, and this like
- 1:28:54Speaker 7: Romanian guy shows up in the parking lot going, do
- 1:28:57Speaker 7: you like massages?
- 1:29:00Speaker 3: Frankly like not from guys like you. And then next
- 1:29:04Speaker 3: thing he knows.
- 1:29:05Speaker 7: He's going to a place ye get some massage, and uh,
- 1:29:09Speaker 7: he got should I be sharing this?
- 1:29:12Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 1:29:12Speaker 9: No, no no.
- 1:29:13Speaker 6: Apparently somebody texted us at seven to seven zero three
- 1:29:15Speaker 6: one that Denise Richards talks about her at the ending
- 1:29:19Speaker 6: she gets on Real Housewives.
- 1:29:20Speaker 3: Who does Denise Richards? Oh yeah, but I mean, come on, dude.
- 1:29:24Speaker 6: So that's a thing though, and someone because women don't
- 1:29:27Speaker 6: have big mouths, we can keep secrets.
- 1:29:29Speaker 7: And also I just don't think I don't know, I'm
- 1:29:33Speaker 7: not saying that women are less or more sexual. I
- 1:29:37Speaker 7: think across the board, it's kind of an average out
- 1:29:40Speaker 7: between the two. But I do think men are just
- 1:29:43Speaker 7: like so aggressive and.
- 1:29:45Speaker 2: It's so it's immediate. With dudes, that's the thing is,
- 1:29:47Speaker 2: like we can go from zero to that back to
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: zero pretty quickly. Women don't really do that, and it
- 1:29:53Speaker 2: has to be a kink for a girl, right, No,
- 1:29:56Speaker 2: you don't think it doesn't You don't think that the
- 1:29:57Speaker 2: woman has to kind of almost want that to happen
- 1:29:59Speaker 2: for it to for her to be able to allow
- 1:30:01Speaker 2: herself to enjoy it.
- 1:30:03Speaker 6: I think that would depend on the woman. I think
- 1:30:05Speaker 6: you know, what has been sold is the whole blue aspect, right.
- 1:30:11Speaker 6: I don't know what you mean by that when there's
- 1:30:13Speaker 6: no release.
- 1:30:14Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
- 1:30:15Speaker 6: Okay, So for women, it's twelve hours for her body
- 1:30:18Speaker 6: to go back to where she was. Oh really pre
- 1:30:21Speaker 6: arousal uh huh that's a long time.
- 1:30:24Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, it's like my dryer. Oh man, that just
- 1:30:27Speaker 3: takes forever. Yeah.
- 1:30:29Speaker 2: But that's the thing is, like, I mean, it almost
- 1:30:30Speaker 2: has to be like with dudes, it's already kind of built.
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: It's a built in fantasy that we've heard about for years,
- 1:30:35Speaker 2: Like you're getting a massage with things great, next thing,
- 1:30:37Speaker 2: you know, the messeuse who's obviously hot and wearing a
- 1:30:40Speaker 2: super short skirt, you know, kind of bumps into it
- 1:30:42Speaker 2: on accident, like your hygienis does occasionally.
- 1:30:44Speaker 6: Yeah, that's like getting pulled over for a traffic ticket. Right,
- 1:30:46Speaker 6: take it in the next thing, you know, right.
- 1:30:48Speaker 3: There you go.
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: But I don't know do women have Do women have
- 1:30:50Speaker 2: like fantasies like that?
- 1:30:52Speaker 3: What hygienis do you go to?
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: It's a joke, gut okay, And I'm never giving you
- 1:30:58Speaker 2: the address, my key Clayton, not sure it didn't happen,
- 1:31:02Speaker 2: but I said on accident clearly.
- 1:31:04Speaker 7: I remember telling you guys on my honeymoon, I got
- 1:31:06Speaker 7: a couple's massage, and I like, I really want my
- 1:31:10Speaker 7: massage just to be as haggard of an old woman
- 1:31:14Speaker 7: as possible. I don't want to the only reaction.
- 1:31:17Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't.
- 1:31:18Speaker 7: I want some shred fingers getting into me, especially if
- 1:31:21Speaker 7: you're relying right next to your wife and you roll
- 1:31:23Speaker 7: over for that peg massage.
- 1:31:24Speaker 3: Next thing, you know exactly it's city.
- 1:31:26Speaker 8: Yeah it is.
- 1:31:29Speaker 7: Uh, but I'm shout out to the women though, who
- 1:31:31Speaker 7: want are pro happy indie man? Yeah, that's that's a
- 1:31:34Speaker 7: boss ass movie.
- 1:31:35Speaker 2: It is a boss ass move one all right four
- 1:31:37Speaker 2: O seven ninete six four one text us seven seven
- 1:31:39Speaker 2: zero three one h O Vito major Ovito Mayer Megan's
- 1:31:43Speaker 2: Lada up next.
- 1:31:49Speaker 5: But confusing me about the property taxes. Everybody seems to
- 1:31:51Speaker 5: be all or none. Either we're gonna pay no property
- 1:31:53Speaker 5: tax or we're gonna pay our regular property tax. Why
- 1:31:56Speaker 5: don't we just get like a discount, you know what
- 1:31:58Speaker 5: I mean, Like we paid like twenty percent of our
- 1:32:01Speaker 5: regular property tax. We'd save a buttload of money, but
- 1:32:04Speaker 5: we still would fund into our communities and our municipalities.
- 1:32:09Speaker 19: I've paid purchase price, interest, insurance, mortgage insurance, and property
- 1:32:14Speaker 19: taxes on a home for thirty years.
- 1:32:17Speaker 13: I don't really own it.
- 1:32:18Speaker 19: Though, because the county can come and take it if
- 1:32:20Speaker 19: I can't afford a property tax bill. If something happens
- 1:32:23Speaker 19: to me and I can't afford my property tax bill,
- 1:32:27Speaker 19: they can take a home that has cost me close
- 1:32:29Speaker 19: to a million dollars. How is that fair? And what
- 1:32:31Speaker 19: world is that fair? They lost the plot, They spent
- 1:32:34Speaker 19: money where they shouldn't. The basics is what needs to
- 1:32:36Speaker 19: be paid for.
- 1:32:37Speaker 3: That's it.
- 1:32:39Speaker 2: There you go, and that by the way, that is
- 1:32:41Speaker 2: she put it perfectly, because that's basically the argument we
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: hear against this. Pretty are for this every single time.
- 1:32:48Speaker 2: That is the argument right there, small government. The government
- 1:32:51Speaker 2: wastes money all the time. We only need the basics,
- 1:32:54Speaker 2: the cops, the fire department, and the stuff that just
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: keeps the society running. And then everything else, all the
- 1:32:59Speaker 2: other ice on that cake. That's that can be.
- 1:33:02Speaker 3: Gone, that can go.
- 1:33:03Speaker 2: All right, Welcome back to the Jim Koper Show. We
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: already one to four point one. I'm Jim, deb Jack
- 1:33:06Speaker 2: and Ross are here as well. And as promised, we
- 1:33:09Speaker 2: invited the Ovido mayor. Her name is Megan Slaated. She's
- 1:33:12Speaker 2: here with a steak. Guys, good and loud for miss Meghan. Yeah, hey, mayor,
- 1:33:18Speaker 2: how you doing doing real well?
- 1:33:20Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 1:33:20Speaker 2: Let me ask you real quick before we get started here.
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: Why did you want to be mayor?
- 1:33:24Speaker 7: Oh?
- 1:33:24Speaker 13: Goodness?
- 1:33:25Speaker 14: I looked around and thought who who is better equipped
- 1:33:28Speaker 14: to say the hard things out loud and to do
- 1:33:31Speaker 14: what's right even when nobody likes it?
- 1:33:33Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 1:33:34Speaker 2: Yeah, are you was? Did you run under a party affiliation?
- 1:33:38Speaker 9: No?
- 1:33:38Speaker 13: This is a non partisan office, right right?
- 1:33:40Speaker 3: Gotcha?
- 1:33:40Speaker 2: Okay, so you are the You are the mayor of Ovito,
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: which is a bustling little area if you're not familiar
- 1:33:45Speaker 2: out of the area. O Vito at one point was
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: voted one of the top fifty areas in the United
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: States to live, which actually caused a major boon to
- 1:33:52Speaker 2: the area, which you guys have seen incredible, massive uh
- 1:33:56Speaker 2: increase in not only businesses but people who have come
- 1:33:59Speaker 2: over there. I lived over that area for quite a
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: while and as we were leaving, we noticed the unbelievable
- 1:34:04Speaker 2: amount of construction and traffic becomes with that, and the
- 1:34:07Speaker 2: growth of UCF and the growth of UCF and the
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: chickens they draw, right, and all of that stuff. So
- 1:34:12Speaker 2: you know, when you hear what our you that young
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: lady just said, and she makes a valid point, right,
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: she does make a valid point.
- 1:34:18Speaker 3: You pay for your home.
- 1:34:19Speaker 2: It's paid for, You've got the mortgage, everything's there, You've
- 1:34:21Speaker 2: got the deed to the house. But yet the county,
- 1:34:23Speaker 2: if you get behind on your property taxes, could literally
- 1:34:26Speaker 2: take your house from you. That's one of the arguments
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: I hear as a city leader who builds these budgets,
- 1:34:31Speaker 2: what what what do you hear from your constituents? And
- 1:34:34Speaker 2: how do you kind of rebut what they're saying.
- 1:34:37Speaker 14: Well, in Ovedo, uh one, over one hundred percent of
- 1:34:41Speaker 14: what we pull in in property taxes is used exclusively
- 1:34:45Speaker 14: for police and fire. So what that means is we
- 1:34:47Speaker 14: can't with what we're getting now in property taxes run
- 1:34:50Speaker 14: police and fire.
- 1:34:51Speaker 13: So most people believe that those are.
- 1:34:53Speaker 14: Essential services, right, Yeah, we will have to scale them
- 1:34:58Speaker 14: back if this goes through and if property taxes are
- 1:35:01Speaker 14: phased out for these people.
- 1:35:02Speaker 3: So what does that mean that you'll have to scale back?
- 1:35:05Speaker 6: Does that mean that one city or that the county
- 1:35:08Speaker 6: will have to take over for a veto's emergency calls?
- 1:35:10Speaker 13: Well, that's just the thing.
- 1:35:12Speaker 14: So if we say, okay, well we don't have enough
- 1:35:13Speaker 14: money to do, we're going to boot it to the county, Well,
- 1:35:15Speaker 14: the county doesn't have the ability if there were to pass,
- 1:35:18Speaker 14: to collect anything additional.
- 1:35:19Speaker 13: Either, So it's nobody would have the money. That's that's
- 1:35:24Speaker 13: what would happen.
- 1:35:25Speaker 2: So what we hear is community amenities, the parks and
- 1:35:29Speaker 2: recks will be the first thing to get bolted up.
- 1:35:31Speaker 14: Absolutely, you gotta go look at what's not police and fire,
- 1:35:35Speaker 14: right And I'm not saying that to be alarmist, it's
- 1:35:37Speaker 14: just you know, I have a pretty thrifty, low fanciness
- 1:35:42Speaker 14: person myself. So I looked at a lot of this
- 1:35:44Speaker 14: parks and rec stuff and say, you know how many
- 1:35:46Speaker 14: people actually use this?
- 1:35:49Speaker 13: You know, not the majority, but a majority of people do.
- 1:35:52Speaker 14: Like when something happens, when you call nine one one,
- 1:35:54Speaker 14: So police and fire have to be prioritized. But yeah,
- 1:35:57Speaker 14: we we have a pretty hefty parks and rec budget.
- 1:36:00Speaker 14: It's like, yeah, seven million, and our fire departments at
- 1:36:03Speaker 14: nine point nine million.
- 1:36:04Speaker 13: So yeah, that's that's a chunk right there.
- 1:36:06Speaker 2: Right, And do you think people when if this does
- 1:36:09Speaker 2: pass and communities like yours still in winter springs and
- 1:36:12Speaker 2: those areas start kind of bolting up, these giant wreck
- 1:36:14Speaker 2: areas where people play baseball, football, soccer games, and all
- 1:36:18Speaker 2: of this stuff kind of goes away. It goes into
- 1:36:20Speaker 2: an olive cart system. I mean, do you think that's
- 1:36:23Speaker 2: what's going to happen? And then, not to mention, I mean,
- 1:36:24Speaker 2: fewer cops, fewer fire services.
- 1:36:27Speaker 13: Well, it's going to have to be that way.
- 1:36:29Speaker 14: So cities are allowed to create a fire fee, they're
- 1:36:33Speaker 14: not allowed to create a police or law enforcement fee.
- 1:36:36Speaker 14: Counties are allowed to do that. So the county could
- 1:36:39Speaker 14: create a separate millage to fund the Sheriff's department, but
- 1:36:43Speaker 14: it can't be in a fee form, So even that millage,
- 1:36:45Speaker 14: if made separate, would still decrease a lot, So that
- 1:36:48Speaker 14: wouldn't really help, but that would give that would give
- 1:36:50Speaker 14: them a little bit of a way to make up
- 1:36:52Speaker 14: the difference if Ovida were to cease having a police department,
- 1:36:54Speaker 14: right yeah, yeah, but.
- 1:36:56Speaker 13: Yeah, on the closing up the facilities, that is probably
- 1:36:59Speaker 13: what happened.
- 1:37:00Speaker 14: I don't think it would be all a cart I
- 1:37:01Speaker 14: don't think we would have enough money to keep them
- 1:37:03Speaker 14: open in this ala carte way, because nobody's going to
- 1:37:05Speaker 14: want to pay the prices it takes to actually fund
- 1:37:09Speaker 14: keeping them open in the condition they're in now. Right now,
- 1:37:12Speaker 14: we have a thirty percent cost recovery rate, so for
- 1:37:14Speaker 14: every dollar you pay for to use a facility, taxpayers
- 1:37:18Speaker 14: are bolstering that with another two dollars.
- 1:37:20Speaker 2: Behind the scene, right right right, I'm thinking that a
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: major complex on Redbug up there on the way to Ovido,
- 1:37:26Speaker 2: that's just right in that Winter Springs Oviedo area. There
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: are a series of basketball fields, soccer fields, and every
- 1:37:32Speaker 2: single Saturday and Sunday morning when you go buy there,
- 1:37:34Speaker 2: It is absolutely inundated with families with their kids out
- 1:37:37Speaker 2: there and enjoying that time for soccer leagues, basketball, baseball,
- 1:37:41Speaker 2: whatever the case may be.
- 1:37:42Speaker 3: So that would be gone.
- 1:37:43Speaker 13: I don't know how they would keep it open for
- 1:37:45Speaker 13: much longer.
- 1:37:45Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:37:46Speaker 14: Yeah, and nobody's going to everyone says we'll just privatize it.
- 1:37:48Speaker 14: Give it to somebody else who will privatize it. Well,
- 1:37:50Speaker 14: the reason government is in that business is because nobody
- 1:37:53Speaker 14: in the private sector will do it at that price,
- 1:37:56Speaker 14: at that loss level.
- 1:37:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:37:59Speaker 6: Interesting, libraries people assume are held under you know, the
- 1:38:03Speaker 6: Florida Department of Education, and they're not. They're under leisure Services.
- 1:38:07Speaker 6: And that will be one of those first areas that
- 1:38:09Speaker 6: are cut. Now somebody, oh, Jack, you go first.
- 1:38:12Speaker 2: Well, I was just going to ask, speaking of libraries,
- 1:38:14Speaker 2: what happens to the libraries in Ovido if the property
- 1:38:18Speaker 2: tax bill goes through and you suddenly have less money
- 1:38:22Speaker 2: to deal.
- 1:38:22Speaker 14: With, Well, the libraries, how are you going to fund them?
- 1:38:25Speaker 14: I don't see how those stay. I don't see how
- 1:38:28Speaker 14: they stay there. On the up side, things like audible
- 1:38:31Speaker 14: exist in ebooks, so people who value those services. If
- 1:38:34Speaker 14: you've got enough money, I guess you can just go
- 1:38:36Speaker 14: replace those things another way?
- 1:38:38Speaker 3: What are the big up?
- 1:38:39Speaker 6: Sorry, go ahead, No, I was just going to say,
- 1:38:41Speaker 6: you know, but for someone like myself, I mean, my
- 1:38:44Speaker 6: mom raised you know, two kids, is a single mother,
- 1:38:47Speaker 6: and the library was the best free entertainment for a family.
- 1:38:52Speaker 6: I mean, it's a safe place where parents can go.
- 1:38:54Speaker 6: Kids can go find books they want to read, you
- 1:38:56Speaker 6: can find movies you want to watch, you can find
- 1:38:58Speaker 6: music you want.
- 1:38:58Speaker 3: To listen to.
- 1:38:59Speaker 6: It's free, it's local, it's I get my library card
- 1:39:03Speaker 6: and my voter identification card wherever I move. Those are
- 1:39:06Speaker 6: the first two things that I get. So what a
- 1:39:08Speaker 6: huge resource to be lost for families here in Florida
- 1:39:12Speaker 6: and No Vito.
- 1:39:12Speaker 13: You can walk to it.
- 1:39:13Speaker 14: My big kids they walk to the library for years
- 1:39:16Speaker 14: and they come home with piles of books and where
- 1:39:18Speaker 14: there's movies there, there's all all the things are at
- 1:39:20Speaker 14: the library. So to replace that with a subscription based
- 1:39:24Speaker 14: for profit service, though it's available, it's going to cost
- 1:39:27Speaker 14: more than a little bit.
- 1:39:27Speaker 13: Of my tax bill that goes to it.
- 1:39:29Speaker 2: What's the number one thing that people will realize if
- 1:39:31Speaker 2: this passes and goes through. What's the number one thing
- 1:39:34Speaker 2: that residents of a veto will realize immediately once it
- 1:39:38Speaker 2: goes through.
- 1:39:39Speaker 14: I think they're going to notice the park's being closed. Yeah,
- 1:39:42Speaker 14: before they'll notice that we scale back on police and fire.
- 1:39:44Speaker 2: Right right, right, Yeah, I got a question, and I
- 1:39:46Speaker 2: know people question, Oh, why do you have to close
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: the parks? You just leave them sit there? Well, you
- 1:39:49Speaker 2: have to have insurance, yes for that, right.
- 1:39:53Speaker 14: Yeah, So the insurance people will not let us keep
- 1:39:56Speaker 14: open a park that's not maintained. So if you don't
- 1:39:59Speaker 14: you know, paint the playground equipment, if you don't close
- 1:40:02Speaker 14: it at sunset, if you don't have a fence that's working, like,
- 1:40:05Speaker 14: the insurance people won't ensure you.
- 1:40:06Speaker 13: And and the state legislature just increased.
- 1:40:09Speaker 14: The amount the sovereign immunity level, so like we have
- 1:40:12Speaker 14: extra liability now because of the state legislature.
- 1:40:15Speaker 13: And then you just can't keep the parks open.
- 1:40:17Speaker 2: Right yeah, So we have plenty of listeners texting in questions.
- 1:40:20Speaker 2: One reads I'm tired of hearing they will shut down
- 1:40:23Speaker 2: things they have to reduce the frivolous spending and they
- 1:40:27Speaker 2: will be okay.
- 1:40:28Speaker 14: Well, the frilllough spending would be the parks, Like that's
- 1:40:31Speaker 14: the only frivolity we have in o Vo.
- 1:40:34Speaker 3: Right, and that's most of the communities, right.
- 1:40:35Speaker 13: I mean, yeah, there's no frivolity in the police and
- 1:40:38Speaker 13: fire department.
- 1:40:39Speaker 3: What are you hearing from your What are you hearing
- 1:40:40Speaker 3: from people?
- 1:40:41Speaker 2: Obviously when this was mentioned, you probably started getting inundated
- 1:40:43Speaker 2: with emails and questions from people who live in your community.
- 1:40:46Speaker 2: What are some of the questions they're asking you?
- 1:40:48Speaker 14: Oh, well, why do politicians get paid? That's a valid
- 1:40:51Speaker 14: one for everybody listening. I get about eighteen thousand dollars
- 1:40:54Speaker 14: a year, so you can cut that out. That's that's
- 1:40:56Speaker 14: hardly anything. And there's just they want to know what
- 1:41:02Speaker 14: we can cut, and I say, I throw it back
- 1:41:03Speaker 14: in and say, here, look at the budget. You show me,
- 1:41:05Speaker 14: you show me, right, Yeah, cut a lot. And that's
- 1:41:07Speaker 14: the big thing that's happening right now.
- 1:41:08Speaker 2: Jason Garzia is a column I know that one we
- 1:41:11Speaker 2: mentioned earlier before we came on the air that you
- 1:41:13Speaker 2: had already read it. You thought it was amazing that
- 1:41:15Speaker 2: that's really kind of showcasing what that is, you know.
- 1:41:17Speaker 2: And by the way, I think that's the whole idea, Like, hey, look,
- 1:41:20Speaker 2: you know, do us this favor I mean, we understand
- 1:41:22Speaker 2: that you're upset about this and you would love to
- 1:41:24Speaker 2: have that money back in your pocket, but please go
- 1:41:26Speaker 2: to each one of these communities, look at their budget,
- 1:41:28Speaker 2: and you tell me where we can cut this, where
- 1:41:30Speaker 2: we can keep other services.
- 1:41:32Speaker 3: Please.
- 1:41:32Speaker 2: I mean they're literally begging people to go and give
- 1:41:34Speaker 2: them ideas for it. And like I've said, when Scott
- 1:41:37Speaker 2: Maxwell's on the air today, I haven't heard one community leader,
- 1:41:40Speaker 2: not one in the area, regardless of party or affiliation,
- 1:41:43Speaker 2: say that they think this is a positive for the state.
- 1:41:46Speaker 14: Well, I think there is a positive side, and that
- 1:41:48Speaker 14: it is forcing conversations to happen about efficiency that some
- 1:41:52Speaker 14: local governments just don't want to have.
- 1:41:53Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:41:54Speaker 14: In Ovido, for for example, I have for years said,
- 1:41:57Speaker 14: you know, we need to look at potentially getting some
- 1:42:00Speaker 14: efficiencies by consolidating police and or fire with the county
- 1:42:05Speaker 14: because you know, could we eliminate some administrative positions. Yeah,
- 1:42:08Speaker 14: we could do that, But does that mean that it's
- 1:42:11Speaker 14: free to provide those services. No, they don't become free
- 1:42:15Speaker 14: if we have a county do it, the county would
- 1:42:17Speaker 14: then need a portion of how much we used to
- 1:42:19Speaker 14: need to do it separately. In Ovido to provide it
- 1:42:22Speaker 14: at that level. So either way it may be a
- 1:42:25Speaker 14: little bit smaller, but it's.
- 1:42:26Speaker 13: Not going to be nothing.
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: Yeah, we're talking about Ovito mayor Megan slatck No.
- 1:42:29Speaker 6: I just wanted to two things. Actually, Megan, someone had
- 1:42:32Speaker 6: texted us at seven seven zero three.
- 1:42:34Speaker 4: One.
- 1:42:34Speaker 6: I just want to assure anyone who's texting us and
- 1:42:37Speaker 6: thinks that we're editing what we are or not going
- 1:42:39Speaker 6: to ask, here's proof that's not the case. They need
- 1:42:42Speaker 6: a line by line audit to find out what they
- 1:42:44Speaker 6: really are spending on and cut what they don't need.
- 1:42:47Speaker 6: But this won't get read to her.
- 1:42:49Speaker 14: Oh well, so go to my Facebook page. It's you know,
- 1:42:52Speaker 14: facebook dot com slash Megan sladek. There is a link
- 1:42:55Speaker 14: if you scroll down in there, and I'll repost that
- 1:42:58Speaker 14: link when I get back to a big computer to
- 1:43:00Speaker 14: the entire line item budget. It's almost three hundred pages.
- 1:43:04Speaker 14: I posted that a couple of weeks ago and said,
- 1:43:07Speaker 14: here here it is. Guys, everybody look at it. Tell
- 1:43:10Speaker 14: us what to cut.
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: Yeah, And the problem is I think that just people
- 1:43:14Speaker 2: hear that they want to you know, I say the
- 1:43:15Speaker 2: problem and look, I completely understand this, you know, when people.
- 1:43:19Speaker 2: My wife and I were talking about this just the
- 1:43:20Speaker 2: other night. She goes, well, how do you look at
- 1:43:22Speaker 2: somebody who's paying, you know, eighteen hundred and twenty five
- 1:43:24Speaker 2: hundred dollars a year in property taxes and they when
- 1:43:27Speaker 2: they hear the idea of getting a large portion of
- 1:43:29Speaker 2: that back or or not having any spend it. You know,
- 1:43:31Speaker 2: how do you tell them if they're behind on their
- 1:43:32Speaker 2: bills or they want to take a vacation, how do
- 1:43:34Speaker 2: you tell them that that that's not a good idea
- 1:43:37Speaker 2: for them.
- 1:43:38Speaker 13: Well, first off, the governor's calculator that's posted is wrong.
- 1:43:43Speaker 14: One of my high school interns has been trying to
- 1:43:45Speaker 14: contact his office, and she she's mobilized all the other
- 1:43:47Speaker 14: high schoolers that are in these math clubs to say.
- 1:43:49Speaker 13: Hey, your calculator is wrong. Right, it's not.
- 1:43:53Speaker 14: It hasn't worked yet. I've talked to members of the
- 1:43:55Speaker 14: legislature to let them know.
- 1:43:56Speaker 7: It isn't a funny how truth comes at a very
- 1:43:59Speaker 7: slower rate. Yeah, isn't that fun and not frustrating at
- 1:44:03Speaker 7: all that justice takes a while.
- 1:44:05Speaker 14: Well, hopefully they figure it out, because people are under
- 1:44:08Speaker 14: the mistaken impression that they're going to get a bigger
- 1:44:11Speaker 14: rebate then will happen. So in a city of a Vina,
- 1:44:14Speaker 14: for example, the average savings is going to be, you know,
- 1:44:16Speaker 14: somewhere between seven hundred and twelve hundred dollars because they're
- 1:44:19Speaker 14: taxable value is just not that high, right, right, So
- 1:44:21Speaker 14: to get seventeen hundred dollars back, we're going to like
- 1:44:24Speaker 14: outsource police and fire. We're going to close all our parks.
- 1:44:27Speaker 14: I mean that I like seventeen hundred dollars too. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:44:31Speaker 14: but do I really want to go.
- 1:44:34Speaker 13: Through all this hassle.
- 1:44:34Speaker 14: We'll figure out how I'm going to reproduce my life
- 1:44:36Speaker 14: and preserve the quality of my community.
- 1:44:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:44:38Speaker 2: But for people who don't use those products, it's so
- 1:44:40Speaker 2: easy for them to say, well, we don't need that
- 1:44:43Speaker 2: because I don't use it. Jack And mentioned this earlier.
- 1:44:45Speaker 2: I mean, I was just talking about you and Sandford.
- 1:44:47Speaker 2: If you if you want to put your boat in
- 1:44:49Speaker 2: the water and the boat ramps are insured and they're
- 1:44:51Speaker 2: maintained by the city, and you want to put your
- 1:44:53Speaker 2: boat in the water, I got horrible news for you.
- 1:44:55Speaker 2: In Sandford. They're going to bolt those up. You're not
- 1:44:57Speaker 2: gonna be able to use the boat ramps in Sandford
- 1:44:59Speaker 2: or Ovdo or anywhere else it goes to a body
- 1:45:01Speaker 2: of water, because those are run by the government and
- 1:45:03Speaker 2: they can't insure them, they can't maintain them. Therefore they
- 1:45:06Speaker 2: will not be open. They won't be they will not
- 1:45:09Speaker 2: be open. And I was just thinking, well, if you
- 1:45:10Speaker 2: don't want to pay a hundred dollars launch your boat
- 1:45:12Speaker 2: so they can that money we use to maintain that
- 1:45:14Speaker 2: boat ram And you're like, well, the city won't do that.
- 1:45:16Speaker 2: They won't be because you'll have to still have somebody
- 1:45:18Speaker 2: to even maintain that part of it, and they'll just
- 1:45:19Speaker 2: both the things up. They won't care.
- 1:45:21Speaker 6: Well, here's another really scary aspect. Somebody also texted that
- 1:45:24Speaker 6: one thing if fire services are cut is the impact
- 1:45:28Speaker 6: on the community's ISO, the Insurance Service Office rating. This
- 1:45:32Speaker 6: will potentially impact our homeowners insurance costs.
- 1:45:35Speaker 13: Oh absolutely, So the city Bovito is to ISO two.
- 1:45:39Speaker 14: If we were to consolidate with a county, the county
- 1:45:41Speaker 14: some of the county's actually ISO one, which is a
- 1:45:43Speaker 14: higher rating, So there could be potential, say additional savings
- 1:45:46Speaker 14: to offset some like you know, there's like a double
- 1:45:49Speaker 14: potentially double benefit. But here's the kicker. The city of
- 1:45:53Speaker 14: Bovito runs its fire department at less cost than the
- 1:45:55Speaker 14: county right now, So if we were to consolidate, which
- 1:45:58Speaker 14: everyone seems to think is a great idea to save
- 1:46:01Speaker 14: on some administrative costs or costs or residsts, actually goes up.
- 1:46:05Speaker 3: Really is not funny. Yeah, so it's not as easy
- 1:46:08Speaker 3: as people think.
- 1:46:09Speaker 5: We do the math.
- 1:46:12Speaker 3: Yeah, come on?
- 1:46:13Speaker 13: Can we do the math every single year?
- 1:46:15Speaker 14: And there there will come a time when it will
- 1:46:17Speaker 14: make sense to do that, probably, But yeah.
- 1:46:20Speaker 2: Can you can you raise a city tax? Can what
- 1:46:23Speaker 2: could you do in your city with your powers?
- 1:46:25Speaker 3: Mayor?
- 1:46:26Speaker 2: I mean, does this have to be voted on? That's
- 1:46:28Speaker 2: number one question? And secondly, you know, could you increase
- 1:46:31Speaker 2: a sales tax or a gas tax in in your
- 1:46:33Speaker 2: city or do something like that to try to create
- 1:46:35Speaker 2: revenue to at least kind of make up some of
- 1:46:37Speaker 2: this one.
- 1:46:37Speaker 14: But talk about that's a great question. So we cannot
- 1:46:40Speaker 14: create a sales tax. Only the counties can do that
- 1:46:43Speaker 14: under state law. We cannot create an income tax. We
- 1:46:47Speaker 14: can create some fees, but they're limited. We can create
- 1:46:50Speaker 14: a fire fee. We already have a storm water fee,
- 1:46:53Speaker 14: water fee, uh, storm sewer fee. Things like that, but
- 1:46:57Speaker 14: we can't have uh, we can't have a police fee
- 1:47:00Speaker 14: right aa.
- 1:47:00Speaker 2: So you know a lot of people also say, you
- 1:47:02Speaker 2: know when we talk about that, when I say the statement,
- 1:47:04Speaker 2: you know, not one municipality leader, not one mayor, and nobody,
- 1:47:08Speaker 2: no city manager, No one has ever text us And
- 1:47:10Speaker 2: we've been talking about this for two weeks now to
- 1:47:12Speaker 2: say hey, I think this is a great idea and
- 1:47:13Speaker 2: here's why it is.
- 1:47:18Speaker 14: Well, but I did before say I think it's great
- 1:47:21Speaker 14: in the in the sense that it's forcing discussions that
- 1:47:23Speaker 14: are very difficult for local level leaders to have because
- 1:47:26Speaker 14: it is politically unsurvivable for a local person to say, hey,
- 1:47:30Speaker 14: let's talk about what we're gonna.
- 1:47:31Speaker 13: Cut from parks, right yeah, So now we have to
- 1:47:34Speaker 13: talk about.
- 1:47:35Speaker 14: These things right right right, and we have to affirmatively
- 1:47:38Speaker 14: have everybody say okay, well yeah we do want these
- 1:47:41Speaker 14: or police or for I or whatever it is.
- 1:47:44Speaker 13: All the sacred cows are on the table.
- 1:47:45Speaker 2: What would be the concern Because the talk from Tallahassee
- 1:47:49Speaker 2: and people are reiterating it here, it's like, well, Governor
- 1:47:52Speaker 2: de Sendant just said, well, the state will make up
- 1:47:54Speaker 2: the difference.
- 1:47:56Speaker 14: Died, So that's what his plan was, but that's not
- 1:47:59Speaker 14: what the legislature actually adopted.
- 1:48:02Speaker 6: Now, they took that slash fund out of a language,
- 1:48:04Speaker 6: and I think it might have something to do with
- 1:48:06Speaker 6: the fact that Florida's projected to have a deficit in
- 1:48:08Speaker 6: two years.
- 1:48:09Speaker 14: We're going to have a deficit at the state level,
- 1:48:11Speaker 14: and that was pulled out. All of the any language
- 1:48:14Speaker 14: that might have existed to force cities and counties to
- 1:48:17Speaker 14: fund police and fire first, there is no such language.
- 1:48:20Speaker 14: So this lawsuit saying that the language is deceptive, you know,
- 1:48:24Speaker 14: that's an awfully kind and gentle way to put it.
- 1:48:26Speaker 14: I believe that the ballot language is untruthful because it
- 1:48:31Speaker 14: does not preserve funding for police and fire.
- 1:48:34Speaker 3: It does not.
- 1:48:35Speaker 13: It does not, absolutely not.
- 1:48:36Speaker 14: So we could choose to not fund those first, we
- 1:48:40Speaker 14: could choose to fund parks and rec and say, you know, county,
- 1:48:43Speaker 14: figure it out.
- 1:48:44Speaker 2: What about the idea of like what this was initially mentioned.
- 1:48:47Speaker 2: It said, well, what you're going to find is is
- 1:48:49Speaker 2: some counties or cities are going to have to combine
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: their services and provide you know, that way they can
- 1:48:54Speaker 2: I guess consolidate their services. And this would be like
- 1:48:57Speaker 2: for you guys, it would be like maybe uh Ov,
- 1:49:00Speaker 2: Winter Springs and Sandford.
- 1:49:02Speaker 14: Maybe, Well that doesn't That doesn't help because you still
- 1:49:05Speaker 14: have to have x number of fire trucks to cover
- 1:49:07Speaker 14: the amount.
- 1:49:08Speaker 13: Of right square for square miles that it covers.
- 1:49:12Speaker 14: So all you can do really is eliminate some of
- 1:49:14Speaker 14: the top administrative positions and everything else. Yeah, maybe you
- 1:49:17Speaker 14: get more buying power. But a fire truck used to
- 1:49:20Speaker 14: cost eight hundred thousand dollars now the go and rates
- 1:49:22Speaker 14: one point two million.
- 1:49:24Speaker 7: What can we do?
- 1:49:25Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 1:49:25Speaker 2: Yeah, And if you close down in the parks and
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: it takes longer for fire police to respond to calls,
- 1:49:31Speaker 2: what does that do to the property value of your
- 1:49:34Speaker 2: home that you're now saving your tax money on. It
- 1:49:38Speaker 2: doesn't seem to me that property values would rise in
- 1:49:41Speaker 2: that situation.
- 1:49:42Speaker 6: Here's another important aspect that I hadn't thought about this
- 1:49:45Speaker 6: before too much, but someone had texted it earlier, and
- 1:49:48Speaker 6: that is I'm also curious if people are aware of
- 1:49:51Speaker 6: the psychological damage a loss of community can cost. There's
- 1:49:56Speaker 6: got to be a connection between quality of life to
- 1:49:58Speaker 6: crime increasing because of it.
- 1:50:00Speaker 14: Oh, absolutely so. A great book to read if you've
- 1:50:03Speaker 14: never read it is A Libertarian Walks into a Bear
- 1:50:06Speaker 14: and It chronicles a town I want to say it's
- 1:50:08Speaker 14: in Connecticut that you know from the American Revolution on
- 1:50:12Speaker 14: all these people just hated taxes and they don't want
- 1:50:14Speaker 14: to have taxes. And you know, the very last chapter
- 1:50:16Speaker 14: of this talks about what the quality of life and
- 1:50:19Speaker 14: the property values are in this town where they got
- 1:50:21Speaker 14: their wish, and what the quality of life is in
- 1:50:23Speaker 14: the town that doesn't have the you know this, this
- 1:50:25Speaker 14: town has to volunteer fire department.
- 1:50:27Speaker 13: Everything's kind of falling to pieces.
- 1:50:29Speaker 14: And then one town over they're not paying that much
- 1:50:31Speaker 14: more in taxes, but you know, that's the place everybody
- 1:50:34Speaker 14: wants to live. They have a community festival. Everybody from
- 1:50:36Speaker 14: the libertarian kind of town they go over and they
- 1:50:39Speaker 14: enjoy the fireworks next door.
- 1:50:41Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:50:41Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't want to pay for it, but they
- 1:50:44Speaker 3: want to see it.
- 1:50:44Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:50:44Speaker 2: And that's another thing that comes up to and we're
- 1:50:46Speaker 2: so short on time here, we got to go. But
- 1:50:47Speaker 2: the other thing too, you hear, is like, you know,
- 1:50:49Speaker 2: frivolous to them is like Mountain Rus Christmas lights or
- 1:50:51Speaker 2: downtown Ovida when you put up the Christmas lights or
- 1:50:53Speaker 2: decorations to make the city feel festive in those in
- 1:50:56Speaker 2: those times when we're really kind of enjoying life and
- 1:50:59Speaker 2: not going through the grind so much, and firework shows
- 1:51:01Speaker 2: and things like that, and it's so funny. It do
- 1:51:04Speaker 2: you know what it reminds me of. It reminds me
- 1:51:06Speaker 2: of Meisterburger. Burgermeister, right, we have no toys, no fun
- 1:51:09Speaker 2: no nothing.
- 1:51:10Speaker 3: It just wash your socks.
- 1:51:11Speaker 2: You don't need it, washer socks. You get one toy
- 1:51:13Speaker 2: and that's it. You should be fine.
- 1:51:15Speaker 3: Kind of thing.
- 1:51:15Speaker 2: It really does have that kind of brownish gray field
- 1:51:19Speaker 2: to it, doesn't it.
- 1:51:19Speaker 14: It does, And I must confess I have been a
- 1:51:21Speaker 14: party pooper who has voted not to have fireworks in
- 1:51:24Speaker 14: Ovido to save money.
- 1:51:26Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know that's what I'm saying.
- 1:51:30Speaker 13: They're right next door.
- 1:51:31Speaker 14: That being said, everybody in Ovito, the vast majority love
- 1:51:35Speaker 14: those fireworks and we have like thirty thousand people show
- 1:51:38Speaker 14: up to see them.
- 1:51:39Speaker 13: So yeah, you know they they may not like paying
- 1:51:42Speaker 13: for them, but they sure come on watch them anyway.
- 1:51:44Speaker 2: Yeah, in your heart, you think it's gonna pass. No,
- 1:51:46Speaker 2: you don't think it's gonna pass.
- 1:51:47Speaker 4: No.
- 1:51:48Speaker 2: I saw a poll that said eighty percent of the
- 1:51:50Speaker 2: people who took the poles of a thousand people and yeah.
- 1:51:52Speaker 14: Self selected people. You can go look at the statistics.
- 1:51:55Speaker 14: Who is a renter in Florida? Uh and thirty to
- 1:51:59Speaker 14: forty percent of peace are renters. And any renter, any
- 1:52:02Speaker 14: renter who has a brain will not vote for this.
- 1:52:05Speaker 14: Any person who owns their own home plus any other
- 1:52:07Speaker 14: investment property or is a small business owner paying rent.
- 1:52:11Speaker 14: Those people, if they're using their brains, will be like, ah,
- 1:52:14Speaker 14: this is going to ruin my triple net lease. Yeah,
- 1:52:17Speaker 14: because your taxes are going to go sky high if
- 1:52:20Speaker 14: you're not in the favored group.

- 2:01:23Speaker 7: is existence for those couple of weeks. That's just your thirties.
- 2:01:26Speaker 7: But you still have to do jury duty.
- 2:01:28Speaker 8: I know, I know.
- 2:01:29Speaker 3: I'm not good at this. I'm not saying I'm the
- 2:01:33Speaker 3: hero here.

- 2:01:40Speaker 2: So I go ahead and blow right through this jury.
- 2:01:44Speaker 2: Due ask you to explain blow right through. In other words,
- 2:01:48Speaker 2: you knew it was coming, and you decided you you
- 2:01:51Speaker 2: made the decision to not go.
- 2:01:53Speaker 4: It was beyond.

- 2:02:25Speaker 7: verbatim Orange County government letter this kid, They not I
- 2:02:31Speaker 7: I believe what they threatened me with was a fine okay,
- 2:02:36Speaker 7: And to be honest with you, I was in a
- 2:02:39Speaker 7: better mood when I got that second piece of mail,
- 2:02:42Speaker 7: and I immediately don't know why I had the Jim
- 2:02:45Speaker 7: Angel on my shoulder, just straight Eglin.
- 2:02:50Speaker 3: It's not gonna win them over, but good luck.
- 2:02:52Speaker 7: I then took it seriously and I emailed them back.
- 2:02:56Speaker 7: I have like four different reasons why I should not
- 2:02:59Speaker 7: be part of any jury, this microphone being one.
- 2:03:03Speaker 2: Of them, right, And that's why I would say, just go.
- 2:03:05Speaker 2: You're never going to make it to a jury. Your
- 2:03:07Speaker 2: job is.
- 2:03:08Speaker 3: I've been.
- 2:03:09Speaker 2: I've been the three jury selections. The instant I walk in,
- 2:03:13Speaker 2: they go, I know you get out of here, so
- 2:03:16Speaker 2: thirty seconds.
- 2:03:16Speaker 3: I'm not kidding dude, this time. I don't know what
- 2:03:19Speaker 3: got into me.
- 2:03:20Speaker 7: I was in a better mood. No one's perfect. I

- 2:03:25Speaker 7: U turn you hear that, deb He was in the
- 2:03:27Speaker 7: mood to be a patriot. I'm not a perfect human being,
- 2:03:31Speaker 7: and I'm not saying that I'm a hero. I'm just
- 2:03:34Speaker 7: saying that for once, like you said, I got maybe
- 2:03:38Speaker 7: I was a little older. When that second piece of
- 2:03:41Speaker 7: mail hit my mailbox, I opened it up. I responded
- 2:03:45Speaker 7: to the email saying, I'm so sorry I missed this date.
- 2:03:49Speaker 7: I did not tell them why because it was just
- 2:03:51Speaker 7: off the brick, untouched, raw apathy, so so you lied. No, No,
- 2:03:58Speaker 7: I just didn't tell them the truth.
- 2:04:00Speaker 3: You don't have to give them an explanation. It's the
- 2:04:02Speaker 3: American way.
- 2:04:03Speaker 2: Jam I apologize, said, I said you lied, and your
- 2:04:07Speaker 2: response was I didn't.
- 2:04:09Speaker 7: Tell them the truth because they didn't ask for the truth.
- 2:04:11Speaker 7: That's literally how this country is being created.
- 2:04:14Speaker 4: Right.
- 2:04:15Speaker 2: Did they asked for a lie? They did not ask
- 2:04:17Speaker 2: for any reason.
- 2:04:17Speaker 3: Gain.

- 2:06:12Speaker 7: taking this seriously since day one.
- 2:06:14Speaker 3: It's content for you? Are you out of your mind?
- 2:06:16Speaker 7: Well, well, I mean that's one way of looking at it,
- 2:06:19Speaker 7: But look, did we freaky Friday? I'm thinking about the
- 2:06:22Speaker 7: patriotic City judy that is at the end of this.
- 2:06:25Speaker 7: I'm not even thinking content, but I am thinking like
- 2:06:27Speaker 7: I'm gonna say everything that's happening during this on this
- 2:06:30Speaker 7: next radio segment and on the next episode of Good
- 2:06:33Speaker 7: Sauce from Ross and Joel that gets broadcast at eight
- 2:06:35Speaker 7: o'clock tonight.
- 2:06:36Speaker 9: And I.
- 2:06:39Speaker 7: Did you know, this is how far I got into
- 2:06:41Speaker 7: this jury selection. I'm in the room with the murder
- 2:06:44Speaker 7: yeah alleged. Oh really you had a murder case, murder
- 2:06:48Speaker 7: damn murderer and no way it.
- 2:06:53Speaker 3: Was a murderer. Can he even talk about this?

- 2:07:03Speaker 7: up dude, look like you kind of did it really?
- 2:07:07Speaker 3: And he looks like it?
- 2:07:09Speaker 2: And that's why you're not on the jury. Yeah, it's
- 2:07:11Speaker 2: one of the main reasons you're not on the jury. Look,
- 2:07:13Speaker 2: I know that shirt. Next guy, did it?
- 2:07:15Speaker 3: Are you ready for this?
- 2:07:16Speaker 8: Dude?
- 2:07:17Speaker 7: Guy number sixty eight, because I'm sixty nine listener. Oh,
- 2:07:21Speaker 7: no way, forgot his name. It's like it's like amenity
- 2:07:24Speaker 7: or annuity or something.
- 2:07:25Speaker 3: Okay, but both of those work.
- 2:07:27Speaker 7: Okay, but his name his name is sixty eight for this, okay.
- 2:07:31Speaker 7: I kind of like nudge you shoulder and he recognizes me.
- 2:07:34Speaker 7: We start chatting it up. I'm like, you know, engage, engage, engage,
- 2:07:38Speaker 7: trying to, you know, make a memorable thing. I nudge
- 2:07:41Speaker 7: him on the shoulder. I look at the stenographer right
- 2:07:44Speaker 7: and on her little typing machine it said court Nerd.
- 2:07:49Speaker 7: But it was incursive, and the O looks it was
- 2:07:53Speaker 7: a sunflower, so it didn't look like it said court NERD.
- 2:07:59Speaker 7: I don't think I have to spoo feed that a
- 2:08:00Speaker 7: little bit more.
- 2:08:01Speaker 3: Maybe I do.
- 2:08:03Speaker 7: The word court incursive without an oh looks like something
- 2:08:10Speaker 7: I can't say.
- 2:08:11Speaker 3: Oh okay.
- 2:08:12Speaker 7: So I nudged the guy on the shoulder and I go, dude,
- 2:08:14Speaker 7: does that look like it says court Nerd or does
- 2:08:17Speaker 7: it look like it says something else? He sees it,
- 2:08:19Speaker 7: he goes starts laughing. We're in the middle of Jerry duty.
- 2:08:22Speaker 4: Dude.
- 2:08:23Speaker 3: Tell people are looking at us, and I'm like, what
- 2:08:25Speaker 3: the hell you're a menace? Dude? Are you ready for
- 2:08:28Speaker 3: this jam you wanted him to go? Are you ready
- 2:08:31Speaker 3: for this?
- 2:08:31Speaker 7: I'm ashamed to say this, but I made the murderer, rapist,
- 2:08:35Speaker 7: alleged accused.
- 2:08:36Speaker 3: I made him laugh. I made the whole room laugh. Bro,
- 2:08:39Speaker 3: I made the whole room laugh laugh. Is what it's tight?
- 2:08:43Speaker 10: Five?
- 2:08:44Speaker 3: Are you ready for I'm not making this up.
- 2:08:46Speaker 7: I was so shocked that even the fact that the
- 2:08:48Speaker 7: monster's forty feet in front of me, accused, allegend, alleged,
- 2:08:54Speaker 7: and all of a sudden, dude, they start. Everyone has
- 2:08:58Speaker 7: a microphone, and we are what hardships we have about
- 2:09:03Speaker 7: why we shouldn't be selected as the jury.
- 2:09:05Speaker 2: Right, this is your opportunity to get out of jury duty,
- 2:09:08Speaker 2: wait to get your kid that can't get a center
- 2:09:10Speaker 2: or whatever the case may be. Judge tells me straight up,
- 2:09:13Speaker 2: is like it tells the whole room like you may
- 2:09:14Speaker 2: be sequestered, which is evidence by the way of me
- 2:09:18Speaker 2: telling the truth that I was there because I don't
- 2:09:20Speaker 2: have the word sequestered in my vocabulary, which means that
- 2:09:23Speaker 2: you would never You would live in a hotel room
- 2:09:25Speaker 2: with no other input in your life until until it's.
- 2:09:27Speaker 3: Over, no no access to media, social media. Right the
- 2:09:30Speaker 3: whole thing.
- 2:09:31Speaker 6: And I can't believe the monsters in the room just allegend.
- 2:09:35Speaker 6: I'm staring at this alleged monster. Dude, God, what does
- 2:09:39Speaker 6: this person look like?
- 2:09:40Speaker 2: Oh?
- 2:09:40Speaker 3: Like a posy, like a monster.
- 2:09:43Speaker 2: Do you know the case? Did they say the case?
- 2:09:44Speaker 3: Oh, I have the case.
- 2:09:45Speaker 7: I don't. I don't want to say it. That's when
- 2:09:47Speaker 7: we started crossing the lines. I'll tell you off air, though, Okay,
- 2:09:50Speaker 7: I'll tell you the case we know about. Oh, it's
- 2:09:52Speaker 7: gotta be it's a deep one, dude.
- 2:09:54Speaker 3: It was dirty. It was bad. It was one of
- 2:09:56Speaker 3: the worst cases.
- 2:09:57Speaker 7: It was so bad that it made me kind of
- 2:09:59Speaker 7: reconsider my whole stance on the life penalty because I've
- 2:10:02Speaker 7: never seen that much of a monster in proximity. And still, yeah,
- 2:10:09Speaker 7: this is how I got to laugh. Though everyone's taking turns.
- 2:10:13Speaker 7: Jim going like, my dad died, I can't make it
- 2:10:16Speaker 7: to Jerry, dude.
- 2:10:17Speaker 2: Take care of my kids and take care of my mom.
- 2:10:19Speaker 4: Is six.
- 2:10:20Speaker 3: They flexed the dates of the trial right there on
- 2:10:24Speaker 3: the screen.
- 2:10:25Speaker 7: My my mother in law just lost a foot. Oh,
- 2:10:28Speaker 7: my puppy is cancer, like all of these super sad things.
- 2:10:32Speaker 7: And then it's my turn. They give me the microphone
- 2:10:34Speaker 7: and I go, World Cup. I'm going to the World
- 2:10:41Speaker 7: Cup July fifteenth, the semi final. And then Judge goes
- 2:10:45Speaker 7: and I assume you've been planning this for a very
- 2:10:48Speaker 7: long time. And I went, oh yeah, And that's what
- 2:10:51Speaker 7: made the room laugh. Oh really, I went, oh yeah.
- 2:10:55Speaker 2: Even the murder guy was like, he took a break
- 2:10:59Speaker 2: from killing.
- 2:11:00Speaker 3: Can we take the legendary?
- 2:11:01Speaker 7: Even even the guy being accused of all these which
- 2:11:04Speaker 7: he definitely probably did, probably, I said, probably, like, man,
- 2:11:10Speaker 7: if you could just see it in his eyes, yeah, allegedly. Yeah,
- 2:11:14Speaker 7: And I think even that guy was like, can this
- 2:11:17Speaker 7: guy take it seriously? Like badass, serious dude. The whole
- 2:11:22Speaker 7: room left the listener number sixty eight. He listens text
- 2:11:26Speaker 7: in I gotta find this guy to tell you, dude,
- 2:11:29Speaker 7: I was. I did pretty well at that jury, Dude,
- 2:11:33Speaker 7: I tore down the house. All right, get out of
- 2:11:34Speaker 7: this and we can talk about right. I hear ross thoughts.
- 2:11:36Speaker 7: I'm out, piece, thank you, that mortgage guy done. I'm
- 2:11:39Speaker 7: not a hero, but I'm not I'm not gonna second.
- 2:11:40Speaker 7: We'll talk more about this with the mayor.
- 2:11:44Speaker 8: I still don't feel like I know anything even enough
- 2:11:47Speaker 8: to have an opinion about this. Like, on one hand,
- 2:11:52Speaker 8: I'm like, you know, work harder to her. On the
- 2:11:56Speaker 8: other hand, I'm like, you know, are we are we
- 2:12:00Speaker 8: actually just going to screw ourselves?
- 2:12:03Speaker 3: You know, I don't.
- 2:12:08Speaker 15: She makes eighteen year killed to swallow. But we need
- 2:12:11Speaker 15: to keep the property taxes. What needs to happen is
- 2:12:15Speaker 15: a proposal to remove property taxes, but something else to
- 2:12:19Speaker 15: replace the income that we were getting the government was getting.
- 2:12:24Speaker 3: Yeah, man, from property taxes. Yep, that's the question.
- 2:12:29Speaker 7: How about we look at some of the government official
- 2:12:32Speaker 7: salaries when we're trying to save money.
- 2:12:36Speaker 3: Some people don't need to make one hundred and twenty
- 2:12:38Speaker 3: thousand dollars. That's a wild heart of a job. That's wild.
- 2:12:42Speaker 3: We're all around here at eighteen to twenty bucks an hour. Yeah, sorry,
- 2:12:46Speaker 3: just a thought, familiar grass.
- 2:12:50Speaker 9: Here's some maybe alternative thinking for the property tax. Sure,
- 2:12:53Speaker 9: how about is just an opt in or out being.
- 2:12:56Speaker 9: You walked into property taxes, You pay property taxes, you
- 2:13:00Speaker 9: get the trash picked up from you get the recycling
- 2:13:02Speaker 9: picked up for you. If you need the police or
- 2:13:05Speaker 9: the angulance or the fire department for any reason, they
- 2:13:08Speaker 9: come to you. If you don't have it, you don't
- 2:13:12Speaker 9: pay for it.
- 2:13:13Speaker 3: You've been for yourself for everything.
- 2:13:16Speaker 2: Yeah, that's gonna be real easy to employ. Oh, we
- 2:13:20Speaker 2: have a database, so let's check it real quick.
- 2:13:21Speaker 3: Oh you're not on it. I'm so sorry.
- 2:13:23Speaker 2: I hope your home invasion goes Okay. Well, I mean,
- 2:13:27Speaker 2: you know, people text in earlier and said it's the
- 2:13:29Speaker 2: doom and gloom thing, the dooming.
- 2:13:30Speaker 3: We're not. It's not the doom and gloom thing.
- 2:13:32Speaker 2: But this is a this is a serious situation, and
- 2:13:34Speaker 2: we just want everybody to have as much information as
- 2:13:37Speaker 2: possible before they make the decision in November. And by
- 2:13:40Speaker 2: the way, this this piece from the Orlando Sentinel Jason Garcia.
- 2:13:43Speaker 2: You heard the mayor herself talk about how comprehensive that
- 2:13:46Speaker 2: piece is. And if anybody out there listening wants to
- 2:13:48Speaker 2: go to the Orlando Sentinel Orlandosentinel dot com and you
- 2:13:51Speaker 2: can see it and every one of those city budgets
- 2:13:54Speaker 2: it's posted right there.
- 2:13:54Speaker 3: She heard.
- 2:13:55Speaker 2: She says, hers is up there now on her Facebook page.
- 2:13:57Speaker 2: It's three hundred pages long. She says, please go through
- 2:14:00Speaker 2: it with a fine tooth comb and tell me where
- 2:14:02Speaker 2: we can trim this money. Well, you got Blazeingngolia, the
- 2:14:05Speaker 2: chief financial officer for the State of Florida, running around saying, Oh,
- 2:14:08Speaker 2: there's waste here, there's waste here. They can cut all
- 2:14:11Speaker 2: this waste. So people are just repeating that yes and
- 2:14:14Speaker 2: just assuming that it's true, and then also assuming and
- 2:14:16Speaker 2: the other thing.
- 2:14:17Speaker 6: I don't.
- 2:14:17Speaker 2: Look, I understand the idea of not trusting governments or
- 2:14:21Speaker 2: government officials, because we've seen enough to not but I
- 2:14:24Speaker 2: don't think every city, municipality, or government's out there to
- 2:14:27Speaker 2: screw you over. This guy's saying like, will they get
- 2:14:29Speaker 2: paid too much? Well, is that your decision to make?
- 2:14:31Speaker 2: And do you know how about tough that job is?
- 2:14:33Speaker 2: You said it can't be that hard man. That is
- 2:14:35Speaker 2: a really and I'm not dogging you do, but that's
- 2:14:37Speaker 2: a short sighted way that you don't know what that
- 2:14:39Speaker 2: requires or the education that had to go into She
- 2:14:42Speaker 2: just told you she makes eighteen thousand dollars a year,
- 2:14:44Speaker 2: is the mayor of Ovedo at one point, one of
- 2:14:46Speaker 2: the top fifty cities in the US to move to
- 2:14:48Speaker 2: eighteen thousand bucks and she does that. It's a civic duty, buddy.
- 2:14:52Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying is it's like everybody believes that
- 2:14:54Speaker 2: everybody's like, there's this weird back room where local officials
- 2:14:57Speaker 2: go and they get paid. I'm not saying that there
- 2:14:59Speaker 2: is at some waste. Matter of fact, most both of
- 2:15:02Speaker 2: these people have said that's the case. But finding it
- 2:15:05Speaker 2: is way more difficult than you think. And they would
- 2:15:07Speaker 2: love help rip through these things and send them a letter.
- 2:15:10Speaker 2: You can email them. That's how I invited her. I
- 2:15:12Speaker 2: simply got up my email account and emailed her and
- 2:15:15Speaker 2: she came in. You could do the same thing, she answered, immediately,
- 2:15:19Speaker 2: No problem. You want to find some way. So let's
- 2:15:21Speaker 2: look at the governor's charity. How about Alligator Alcatraz. That's
- 2:15:26Speaker 2: seven hundred and fifty million dollars. Yeah, you think they're
- 2:15:28Speaker 2: gonna help people who are paying property taxes in Orlando
- 2:15:30Speaker 2: and that's not throughout the state. Seven hundred and fifty million,
- 2:15:33Speaker 2: and by the way, it could be way more. It
- 2:15:34Speaker 2: could be into the billions. For the record, is that
- 2:15:37Speaker 2: what we have to show for that?
- 2:15:38Speaker 3: Is it all done for? Right today? They wrap things up. Yeah,
- 2:15:42Speaker 3: it's done.
- 2:15:42Speaker 2: They are getting people out of there because the hurricane
- 2:15:44Speaker 2: season coming through, and that is a that is logistically
- 2:15:46Speaker 2: a nightmare. If you could imagine. By the way, welcome back.
- 2:15:49Speaker 2: I'm Jim, deb Jack and Rosser here as well. People
- 2:15:51Speaker 2: are on the texting service are asking to search your
- 2:15:53Speaker 2: ASoft contest if it can be accessed twenty four hours
- 2:15:56Speaker 2: a day. The answer is yes. It is not behind
- 2:15:59Speaker 2: a fence. Just like the second stanza of the poem says,
- 2:16:02Speaker 2: it is out there to be found.
- 2:16:03Speaker 3: You can find it. You can walk up.
- 2:16:04Speaker 2: You can walk up to it right now as you're
- 2:16:06Speaker 2: listening to me with no problem, or you could do
- 2:16:08Speaker 2: it at four o'clock this morning. So it doesn't really
- 2:16:11Speaker 2: Oh yeah, easily, it's in a it's in a whoa
- 2:16:15Speaker 2: easy easy, hint hint. And we'll have the other two
- 2:16:18Speaker 2: clues tomorrow. And we've got a lot of people asking
- 2:16:20Speaker 2: about it. The searcherrase off contest, Real Radio, dot FM,
- 2:16:23Speaker 2: slash ace. Okay, your jewy, your jury duty, speaking of
- 2:16:27Speaker 2: civic duty, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Well I'm happy that I'll
- 2:16:31Speaker 2: use civic duty as a segue.
- 2:16:33Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you something.
- 2:16:34Speaker 2: I'm glad you learned. That's the number one thing, right, boy,
- 2:16:37Speaker 2: did I I'm glad. I'm glad, yes, because I think
- 2:16:40Speaker 2: that you thought this was going to be a pain
- 2:16:41Speaker 2: in the ass. And can I tell you jury duty
- 2:16:43Speaker 2: is a bit of a pain in the ass, but
- 2:16:45Speaker 2: it also is painfully interesting. And it is your duty
- 2:16:49Speaker 2: as a citizen to provide a jury of peers for
- 2:16:52Speaker 2: an adjudication.
- 2:16:53Speaker 3: And is this a hot take?
- 2:16:55Speaker 10: Uh?
- 2:16:55Speaker 3: Maybe, just taught me if it is. But it reminded me. Yeah,
- 2:16:59Speaker 3: now this is going to be a hot take.
- 2:17:01Speaker 7: It reminded me that we do have one of the
- 2:17:03Speaker 7: best justice systems and serving out justice on the planet.
- 2:17:08Speaker 3: Is that a hot take?
- 2:17:09Speaker 7: I'm not hot take. That's a good thing. I'm not
- 2:17:11Speaker 7: saying that's not perfect. Yeah, it's not perfect. God knows
- 2:17:14Speaker 7: it's not perfect, but it works more than it doesn't.
- 2:17:16Speaker 2: I think when you compare it to the rest of
- 2:17:19Speaker 2: the planet, which is all we have to compare it
- 2:17:22Speaker 2: to the US justice system, it's not batting a thousand,
- 2:17:25Speaker 2: but it's pretty damn good. By the way, why can't
- 2:17:28Speaker 2: we say the case because the case is everywhere on
- 2:17:31Speaker 2: the news. You told me during the break what the
- 2:17:32Speaker 2: guy's name was, and the and the case is there.
- 2:17:35Speaker 2: We couldn't real quick. The only reason I wouldn't talk
- 2:17:37Speaker 2: about it beforehand is you wouldn't want to taint the
- 2:17:40Speaker 2: jury pool. But the jury pool is done. I mean
- 2:17:42Speaker 2: they chose the jury today, right, I believe so. I
- 2:17:45Speaker 2: think that was the last thing of the news. I mean,
- 2:17:47Speaker 2: can we say the story. Do you think that's okay?
- 2:17:49Speaker 3: Yeah? Sure, Yeah.
- 2:17:51Speaker 7: It was the the It was the killing and the
- 2:17:55Speaker 7: sexual assault of a ninety two year old woman.
- 2:17:59Speaker 8: Ah.
- 2:17:59Speaker 6: Yes, he was dating one of the women's daughters and
- 2:18:02Speaker 6: then on again, off again relationship. And he went into
- 2:18:05Speaker 6: her her senior living apartment.
- 2:18:08Speaker 3: It was her birthday. Yeah, she's not just celebrating her birthday. Yes,
- 2:18:12Speaker 3: she had just turned ninety three years old. And I
- 2:18:14Speaker 3: was in the same room as that guy. He's a
- 2:18:17Speaker 3: year right, he has a POS.
- 2:18:19Speaker 2: And by the way I read the story today, had
- 2:18:21Speaker 2: said that he had an addiction to elderly female porn
- 2:18:24Speaker 2: or older or what they call what is that, geriatric
- 2:18:28Speaker 2: porn or whatever.
- 2:18:29Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it's it was such a life molding experience.
- 2:18:34Speaker 7: And boy, let me just get ahead of it again, Jim,
- 2:18:37Speaker 7: you have never been more right on why you've been
- 2:18:40Speaker 7: upset at me in the past than me just nonchalantly
- 2:18:44Speaker 7: blowing through jury duty. I will everything changed the second
- 2:18:48Speaker 7: I walk into that courthouse. Yeah, yeah, everything changed as
- 2:18:51Speaker 7: soon as you see the high ceiling. You see you know,
- 2:18:54Speaker 7: the judge, the judge, geographer, the lawyers, everything, And that's
- 2:18:59Speaker 7: when I started to go like, ah, I'm not I
- 2:19:02Speaker 7: gotta be a better human about this. And there's a
- 2:19:04Speaker 7: heartbreaking moment also as I fire this is interesting, as
- 2:19:10Speaker 7: I'm telling the judge of course that like I'm going
- 2:19:12Speaker 7: to the World Cup, this is one of the reasons
- 2:19:14Speaker 7: why I don't think I can bake it, which is
- 2:19:17Speaker 7: as I say that into this microphone, breaks my heart
- 2:19:20Speaker 7: because it also broke my heart being in a room
- 2:19:23Speaker 7: full of people that were doing the same exact thing,
- 2:19:27Speaker 7: doing everything they can to get out of it, just
- 2:19:29Speaker 7: saying everything, some of it, I'm sure almost basically all
- 2:19:32Speaker 7: of it being true. But for about a little over
- 2:19:36Speaker 7: an hour with the monster in the room and the prosecutors,
- 2:19:40Speaker 7: the state, the lawyers are there and we are just
- 2:19:44Speaker 7: after one after another saying why we don't care enough?
- 2:19:49Speaker 7: And boy, that left an impact on me, not maybe
- 2:19:53Speaker 7: not care enough, but just why we can't be.
- 2:19:55Speaker 2: Part of justice? What did thirty five dollars a day?
- 2:19:59Speaker 3: Is that what it is?
- 2:19:59Speaker 2: If you get chosen thirty five bucks a day? I
- 2:20:01Speaker 2: believe for your services. I don't even think he got
- 2:20:04Speaker 2: to the money round.
- 2:20:05Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:20:05Speaker 2: But what I'm saying is, I mean, you wonder why
- 2:20:07Speaker 2: people try to get out of this. You know, if
- 2:20:09Speaker 2: you have a job and you're making you know, twenty
- 2:20:10Speaker 2: five thirty forty dollars an hour or whatever, and you
- 2:20:13Speaker 2: have to spend a week in a courtroom, you know,
- 2:20:16Speaker 2: trying to get a guy adjudicated guilty because of what
- 2:20:18Speaker 2: he did, which is awful. It's gonna wind up costing you,
- 2:20:21Speaker 2: you know, eight hundred, nine hundred dollars.
- 2:20:23Speaker 9: To do that.
- 2:20:24Speaker 3: And a lot of people brought that up.
- 2:20:25Speaker 7: There's also like one person who rattled off their reasoning
- 2:20:29Speaker 7: and I thought, I was like, all right, little Tami.
- 2:20:31Speaker 7: She goes, you know, I work at McDonald's and my
- 2:20:34Speaker 7: boyfriend does not work. Oh yeah, And everyone's like, oh,
- 2:20:39Speaker 7: I'm just like I mean, there's probably like sixty seventy
- 2:20:43Speaker 7: of us just in the courtroom going turn by turn
- 2:20:47Speaker 7: telling the judge why we can't be part of the jury.
- 2:20:50Speaker 3: Let's talk.
- 2:20:51Speaker 2: Did you so you never get to the question where
- 2:20:53Speaker 2: the lawyers actually asked you questions, right or anything like that?
- 2:20:55Speaker 2: They I mean, well, do the judges ask and then
- 2:20:58Speaker 2: they ask the lawyers if they like you or not?
- 2:21:00Speaker 7: Right, Yes, yeah, that's it was the moment where the
- 2:21:02Speaker 7: lawyers and then they put the little white noise on.
- 2:21:05Speaker 2: You guys know about that, Yeah, the white noise, so
- 2:21:06Speaker 2: you can't hear what they're saying. Yeah, the judges and
- 2:21:08Speaker 2: the lawyers are discussing. It just seems like a snowed TV.
- 2:21:11Speaker 2: Let me ask you this real quick. So I remember
- 2:21:14Speaker 2: the first time I had jury duty. It was one
- 2:21:16Speaker 2: of the weirdest situations ever, because do you know the
- 2:21:18Speaker 2: story Jack, Do you remember?
- 2:21:20Speaker 3: Yeah? I think you've called them. Yeah, do you remember it?
- 2:21:22Speaker 17: Yeah?
- 2:21:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 2:21:23Speaker 2: The person that I was chosen to be a jury uh,
- 2:21:27Speaker 2: a jury person for we, my wife and I sold
- 2:21:31Speaker 2: our my ex wife and I should say sold our
- 2:21:33Speaker 2: ex our house, our very first house that we bought,
- 2:21:35Speaker 2: and we sold it to this couple that were very sweet.
- 2:21:38Speaker 2: They had two kids, right, and we sold to them
- 2:21:41Speaker 2: and moved on. The kid that had been molested by
- 2:21:44Speaker 2: the guy that was on trial was one of the
- 2:21:46Speaker 2: kids that we sold the house to. Wild We sold
- 2:21:49Speaker 2: the house to a couple had two kids, and one
- 2:21:50Speaker 2: of those kids is the kid that got the victim
- 2:21:53Speaker 2: that was the victim and the judge couldn't believe the
- 2:21:56Speaker 2: you know how narrow that was. But here's what I remember.
- 2:21:59Speaker 2: Being outside waiting for my group to be called. I
- 2:22:01Speaker 2: remember it was a very lighthearted kind of thing. You
- 2:22:03Speaker 2: can hear people having conversations. Some people were talking, some
- 2:22:06Speaker 2: people were on their phone. They were wondering what it
- 2:22:08Speaker 2: was like. Man, the instant I walked into that courtroom,
- 2:22:11Speaker 2: I grew up a little bit that day. Same and
- 2:22:13Speaker 2: that even as a grown ass man that had already
- 2:22:15Speaker 2: run out of business and had kids and holding on yards,
- 2:22:18Speaker 2: it just felt way more serious in that room than
- 2:22:22Speaker 2: it did out in there.
- 2:22:22Speaker 3: And it just felt different all together. When I left,
- 2:22:25Speaker 3: I was not I grew up a love that day.
- 2:22:27Speaker 3: It was great.
- 2:22:28Speaker 7: I was not expecting at all to be in front
- 2:22:31Speaker 7: of lawyers and a man accused of rape and murder
- 2:22:35Speaker 7: by lunchtime.
- 2:22:36Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I had just eaten ben Yet's on my
- 2:22:39Speaker 3: lunch break.
- 2:22:40Speaker 2: I think they if someone texted in't they said that
- 2:22:42Speaker 2: judge said that this trial could go on for a month.
- 2:22:45Speaker 3: No way, Yeah, they said they were straight up.
- 2:22:47Speaker 7: When the judge first walked out, the first thing he
- 2:22:49Speaker 7: says is that this is a death sentence trial, like,
- 2:22:53Speaker 7: please understand the yeah, the gravity of this situation. And
- 2:22:58Speaker 7: I'm over here pointing out how this sticker kind of
- 2:23:01Speaker 7: looks like something else. I'm like, God, come on, buckle
- 2:23:06Speaker 7: down and get what did your wife think when you
- 2:23:08Speaker 7: told her of the story?
- 2:23:09Speaker 3: Was she was she equally is like.
- 2:23:11Speaker 7: Kind of yeah, yeah, well she was a little disappointed.
- 2:23:14Speaker 7: And then she was also like, I told you you
- 2:23:16Speaker 7: should have just emailed them. Yeah, you didn't have to
- 2:23:19Speaker 7: do this. Yeah, that could have walked. I mean again,
- 2:23:21Speaker 7: you get an appointment like that. If you're in a
- 2:23:23Speaker 7: jury for a month, you're not seeing your family, right,
- 2:23:26Speaker 7: I don't can you see your family? And when you're
- 2:23:27Speaker 7: a sequestered, can they visit ooh sequester?
- 2:23:31Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 2:23:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they can't. I don't believe you
- 2:23:35Speaker 2: get any outside information because theoretically your wife could come
- 2:23:37Speaker 2: in and say, well, he did this, he did this,
- 2:23:39Speaker 2: he did this. But are your kids can say something
- 2:23:40Speaker 2: as well that would possibly taint your uh uh, your
- 2:23:43Speaker 2: uh your vote.
- 2:23:44Speaker 3: It doesn't mean he was going to be a sequestered.
- 2:23:46Speaker 2: That's what they said, though, didn't they Yeah, yeah, they
- 2:23:48Speaker 2: brought up that.
- 2:23:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean this serious deal.
- 2:23:52Speaker 2: If you think about you're living in a hotel for
- 2:23:53Speaker 2: a month, you'll see your son, you don't see your wife. Uh,
- 2:23:56Speaker 2: and you're making thirty five bucks a day. Somebody just
- 2:23:57Speaker 2: texted and said, in Pole County it's fifteen. Well, I
- 2:24:00Speaker 2: mean you think about teams about right, if you make
- 2:24:02Speaker 2: that kind of money. I mean that thing we could
- 2:24:03Speaker 2: cost you a ten grand, it could cost you five
- 2:24:05Speaker 2: to eight ten grand.
- 2:24:06Speaker 3: Well.
- 2:24:06Speaker 7: There there was one real estate agent. When it was
- 2:24:08Speaker 7: his turn to explain why, he was just like, I'm
- 2:24:10Speaker 7: self employed and I need to work.
- 2:24:13Speaker 2: Yeah, And it was just if you're the sole provider
- 2:24:15Speaker 2: as well.
- 2:24:15Speaker 7: It was just person after person for the most part,
- 2:24:18Speaker 7: except one guy who said the World Cup that everyone
- 2:24:22Speaker 7: else was just saying money, financial problem, financial problem.
- 2:24:26Speaker 3: My husband needs me to work, my wife needs me
- 2:24:28Speaker 3: to work.
- 2:24:29Speaker 2: It's not easy for to say, hey, give up a
- 2:24:31Speaker 2: month of your life right to do this right. It
- 2:24:33Speaker 2: is very important. But also the reality is people have lies. Yeah,
- 2:24:38Speaker 2: I've talked to attorneys before and it wasn't Ray talked
- 2:24:40Speaker 2: to somebody years ago and was talking about this very thing.
- 2:24:43Speaker 2: And one of the other things I say, it's even
- 2:24:45Speaker 2: more like like a weird tell for them is people
- 2:24:48Speaker 2: who really want to be on the jury, and they
- 2:24:50Speaker 2: could tell like people who are really trying to answer
- 2:24:53Speaker 2: to make it on that jury because they want to
- 2:24:55Speaker 2: be part of it.
- 2:24:56Speaker 3: Guilty.
- 2:24:56Speaker 2: Yeah, right exactly. That would be in that world. Be
- 2:25:00Speaker 2: in that world. I mean, I wouldn't tell a lie
- 2:25:02Speaker 2: to get it, but I would love to be on
- 2:25:03Speaker 2: a on a trial like that. I don't want it
- 2:25:04Speaker 2: to be a month I was I was being interviewed
- 2:25:07Speaker 2: for a grand jury, and that I watched people in
- 2:25:10Speaker 2: front of me trying their best to get out of it.
- 2:25:12Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, I got this. I'm like I can
- 2:25:15Speaker 3: do it.
- 2:25:15Speaker 2: I can do it. And they're like, uh, this is
- 2:25:18Speaker 2: Seminole County. This involves the sheriff of seven Ole County,
- 2:25:22Speaker 2: you know, because that's part of the arrests. Does anyone
- 2:25:25Speaker 2: here know the sheriff of Seminole County? And I had
- 2:25:30Speaker 2: to slowly raise my hands. It was here at the time. Yeah,
- 2:25:35Speaker 2: there was a so there, Come on, man. There was
- 2:25:38Speaker 2: two times that I held the microphone. The second time
- 2:25:41Speaker 2: is the one that I told them about the World Cup.
- 2:25:43Speaker 2: The first time they asked you about the hardships of
- 2:25:46Speaker 2: like is there anything, Uh, you know about you that
- 2:25:49Speaker 2: would get in the way of this. And when they
- 2:25:51Speaker 2: gave me the mic, Dude, I just straight up told
- 2:25:53Speaker 2: everyone in the room with the guy once again accused
- 2:25:56Speaker 2: of rape and murder forty feet away, and I just said,
- 2:25:59Speaker 2: I plan on sharing everything that's happening today and in
- 2:26:03Speaker 2: the future on a radio station because I find it interesting.
- 2:26:07Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 2:26:07Speaker 2: Yeah, What was the response? Did people know who you were?
- 2:26:10Speaker 3: Sixty eight did?
- 2:26:12Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 2:26:12Speaker 3: Sixty eight. Me and him were kicking it. We were
- 2:26:15Speaker 3: almost smoked to join after easy stuff. My bad, I'm bad.
- 2:26:20Speaker 2: He was cool though, very interesting story man, that's cool.
- 2:26:22Speaker 7: And in conclusion, though you are one thousand percent right,
- 2:26:27Speaker 7: I was a total idiot about jury duty. I have
- 2:26:30Speaker 7: turned a massive corner when it comes to our justice
- 2:26:34Speaker 7: and legal system. I know that I won't be a
- 2:26:36Speaker 7: part of it, but I know I will never spend
- 2:26:38Speaker 7: another day not respecting it.

- 2:29:45Speaker 6: seven murders before confessing to an eighth dating back decades
- 2:29:48Speaker 6: on Long Island. In a case that has drawn national
- 2:29:51Speaker 6: media attention. Judge Timothy Mesi asked Hure mean if he
- 2:29:55Speaker 6: was sorry, and he said, quote yes, end quote. The
- 2:29:57Speaker 6: judge responded by calling him quote a dis pickable, disgusting
- 2:30:01Speaker 6: small man and a coward, telling the bailiffs quote.
- 2:30:04Speaker 3: Get him out of here, get him out of here.

- 2:30:13Speaker 2: were pin pals, right, yeah, Well, the Happy Face Killer
- 2:30:15Speaker 2: is also a really big guy, like six three hundred pounds,
- 2:30:18Speaker 2: and one of the things that they glean from the
- 2:30:20Speaker 2: letters because you can read everything. I mean, you have
- 2:30:22Speaker 2: no privacy when you're convicted killer like that is he
- 2:30:25Speaker 2: told Humorman. The happy Face killer told a human it
- 2:30:28Speaker 2: doesn't matter how big you are, you're gonna get your
- 2:30:30Speaker 2: ass kicked in prison, So prepare yourself accordingly.

- 2:30:35Speaker 2: Really, he told Hi about even in solitary, you're gonna
- 2:30:38Speaker 2: get it somewhere somehow, just kind of warning him. It
- 2:30:41Speaker 2: doesn't matter if you think you are big and that's
- 2:30:43Speaker 2: gonna thwart prisoners. That ain't gonna happen. You're going to
- 2:30:46Speaker 2: get served. WHOA, Yeah, it was crazy.
- 2:30:49Speaker 7: I cannot wait to find out what happens to the guy.
- 2:30:53Speaker 7: I hope he goes to prison. Dude, God, I hate
- 2:30:56Speaker 7: that guy. Well.
- 2:30:56Speaker 6: Semonol County officials have issued a warning about black bearreck
- 2:31:00Speaker 6: in the area. They say numerous sightings have been reported
- 2:31:03Speaker 6: this summer, including in Longwood, where a bear stolen Amazon package.
- 2:31:08Speaker 6: Residents are advised to secure trash cans and avoid interactions
- 2:31:12Speaker 6: with bears. It's also important not to feed them. Be
- 2:31:15Speaker 6: careful when you're out walking your dogs and stuff like that.
- 2:31:17Speaker 2: Did you see Darryl Paine's experience with it. No, yeah,
- 2:31:19Speaker 2: look at his Instagram account. He's out there fixing a
- 2:31:22Speaker 2: bird feeder and Penny is filming him doing it and
- 2:31:25Speaker 2: walking up right behind him as a black bear. Oh
- 2:31:27Speaker 2: they literally what some of the old county just instituted

- 2:31:32Speaker 8: Yeah?
- 2:31:32Speaker 3: Wow? Okay.
- 2:31:33Speaker 6: And then finally, Lake County deputies arrested a couple of
- 2:31:36Speaker 6: guys last week, both accused of going more than one
- 2:31:38Speaker 6: hundred miles an hour as they raised each other on
- 2:31:41Speaker 6: along US twenty seven and the Leesburg area. All right, now,
- 2:31:45Speaker 6: you think this would be sixteen seventeen. No one of
- 2:31:49Speaker 6: them was how old?
- 2:31:50Speaker 3: Oh tell me eighty four?
- 2:31:52Speaker 6: Oh, I'm going to stop you now. Eighty five? Oh wow,
- 2:31:55Speaker 6: eighty five. Deputies arrested eighty five year old William Worth,
- 2:32:00Speaker 6: who was driving a Nissan sports car, and fifty seven
- 2:32:03Speaker 6: year old Philip Signorino, who was driving a red Corvette.

- 2:32:10Speaker 6: ten and a forty five mile an hour zone, clock
- 2:32:13Speaker 6: Signorino's Corvette going one hundred and twenty five.

- 2:32:19Speaker 6: said he, I don't know that guy.
- 2:32:20Speaker 3: I don't know that guy.
- 2:32:21Speaker 6: But apparently, when Signorino was asked by jail staff which
- 2:32:25Speaker 6: car he was driving, he allegedly responded, quote.
- 2:32:28Speaker 3: The one that won the Corvette. That's so funny end quote.
