Under Pressure

Since the last couple of radio shows were not "podcast worthy" for whatever reason, there was a lot riding on today's show to be among the greatest broadcasts of all time.  We ruined that within the first few seconds.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Lucy, there is a lot of pressure on today's
radio show.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Before you tell me, before you am I on there,
you're you're hitting the wrong button there. Before you tell
me who he said that? Right before you tell me that,
let me just tell you real quick. Southbound one hundred
and forty fourth at Pacific is blocked. You get a
looks like a property damage, but it is blocked.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
I'd be a property damage means.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
There is something wrong over here. A car accident, now
I can hear you.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
A car accident, A property damage accident, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Propretty damage crash.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
Nobody got hurt otherwise not as a car accident.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Well, it's either injury crash, an injury crash or a
property damage crash versus kind of going to give you
an idea of how long it's going to be there.
Property damage. You could just exchange information. It might be
gone in five minutes.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Well, I can tell you that you're you're right now
lessening the level of anxiety and stress and pressure that
I'm putting on this show. Because I was going to
say that this has to be a really good show.
But now, I mean, what's the point.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
No, just pretend I didn't say anything. Just rewinding' rewind,
I'm kidding, del.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
No, you telling us about accidents causing issues for Major
Omaha and one hundred forty fourth and Pacific southbound southbound
lanes of one hundred and forty fourth at Pacific. Correct. Fantastic,
not fantastic, but thank you for the updates. So the

(01:33):
last couple of days have been well, Monday show was
just a lot of this it's it's snowing, there's the
interstate's closed, this major highway has got a major accident
on it, and there was just that on Monday. So
I didn't podcast Monday Show because it was pretty much

(01:56):
just a lot of traffic information, not the that's not
fantastic or anything. I don't know. No, it's just that,
you know, for people who want to listen to it
later in the week, it doesn't make a lot of sense, right,
you hear about, oh, the Interstate's closed, and you hear
about it Wednesday afternoon, it doesn't make any also confuse you, Yes,

(02:18):
so Monday show didn't get podcasted. Yesterday's show was marked
by me. Let me tell you what my wife heard.
She was listening from out of town. I mentioned she
was out of town with our daughter the other day,
stuck in Kansas because of the weather, and she turns
on via our free iHeartRadio app yesterday and here's me

(02:42):
say I'm not having a heart attack. So now she's
all freaked out because I couldn't talk for the first
half hour of the show because for the second time
in about nine months or so, I had a major
attack of I don't know. I just call it heartburn.
Other people call it various things, and there are still those.

(03:05):
And the reason I said that yesterday is because when
it happened last year, people said, I think you're having
a heart attack. So I wanted to quickly say I'm
not having a heart attack, which made my wife think
my husband's on the radio having a heart attack. Which
if I am having a heart attack, I want to
do it on the radio. I want to milk that

(03:27):
for ratings and tune in. I want people to be
on social media going there's a guy on the am
radio right now having a heart attack. So when that happens,
even if it's not during my shift, I will come
in here and interrupt Clay and Buck or Jesse Kelly
at night and have a heart attack on the air.
So when that happens. You'll hear it here first on

(03:49):
Nebraska's News, Weather, traffic, and heart attack station. But yesterday
I was not having a heart attack. I was having heartburn.
And so then the rest of the day, Now my
wife comes home with medications. Take this, take this. So
now I'm looking up. She's like, well, what are you eating?
I said, well, I'm I used to come in and

(04:14):
eat one of those really delicious like sausage egg biscuit
breakfast sandwiches. They're awesome. I love them. Every once in
a while, Lucy brings me half a one, and I
try and tell her, no, no, I don't need that,
because then it's going to make me fall back into
bad habits and wanting to eat that every day.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Are you going to roundabout blame me for this?

Speaker 3 (04:37):
No?

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Okay, So I stopped doing that and came up with
a much cheaper and healthier alternative. I have a protein
shake followed by a couple of granola bars, and then
I come in and do the show. So I look up, like, well,

(04:58):
does a way protein and shake cause heartburn? Yes? Then
I said, well, wait, does granola cause heartburn? Yes? Oh.
I also take a little energy shot of caffeine before
I come on the earth. I don't know. I don't
know that I need it. That's it's got vitamins in it.

(05:19):
It's practically a salad. So I have one of those,
like does caffeine cause heartburn? Yes? So then I was like, well,
is anything I type in to the Google machine? Does
this cause heartburn? I even typed in does everything cause heartburn? Yes?
I don't know there's anything I could have typed in there,

(05:40):
except I did go in there and say what about oatmeal?
Does oatmeal cause heartburn? And said no, because for a
while there I was eating oatmeal. So I might go
back to oatmeal because I don't want to. I don't
want to deal with that yesterday. But the real problem
yesterday was I felt it coming on and I decided, well,

(06:02):
I don't want to be hungry during the show, so
I'm gonna try and choke down these granola bars and
then go do the show anyway. So I threw those
down my throat right before coming in here, and then
I did the worst thing ever. I ate so many
of those little tablets to try and control the heartburn
that that made me sicker than anything. It didn't it

(06:25):
helped with the heartburn, but I had way too many
of them, and my body was like, what are we doing?
And so it was just all it was all really
really bad. Not as bad as this segment, but it
was all really really bad.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
I saw that Jim went into the bathroom and told your.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Hair, Yeah it was it was that. It was awful.
I can tell you. I felt better after doing that.
Then my wife said, I heard Gary like, jump in
there and do the temperatures during one of your breaks,
and then you were back on the radio. Yeah. So
that the first time in my career that any of

(07:02):
that's ever happened. So I came back in here and
felt so much better. So now we're gonna sell a
sponsorship for that add about the nine thirty four mark.
It's gonna be no, I'm kidding. So this segment isn't
gonna make it. I'm pretty sure no one will hear
this one again. This is like a Dolly work of art.

(07:24):
You know, it's just there for one moment, then it's
destroyed and it's gone. No one will see it again.
But for the rest of this show. There's a lot
of pressure on the show because yesterday's show didn't get podcasted.
They didn't make the vintage Warheaess highlights. Even though there
was some funny stuff in yesterday's show, it was just
so disjointed. And then Monday show didn't get podcasted.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Two of the shows that I was on a bunch
of show no no no. I I always keep you
hard time about that. Those are the shows that just
you know, they're kind of silly, just fun.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
Well that's all, then say, that's the other part of it.
I didn't feel like, all right, time to roll up
the mental sleeves and tell you about doge you know
or whatever. I've got some And but by the way,
I've got sitting here a bigger and bigger pile of
story after story that I can all weave together in

(08:19):
some big political diatribe. Excellent, but I don't I still
don't know if that's what people are wanting to hear, Like,
you don't need me to tell you it's cold, though,
I will share this story with you. Like a lot
of people who have those sensors on their vehicles say, hey,
your tire pressure is low. I've got a censor on

(08:42):
my vehicle that every other day now says your tire
pressure is dangerously low. And I look at it doesn't
look low. But I live in pretty close proximity to
one of those things where you go out there and
hit start and you put in the number, you know,
tire pressure you want the tire to be inflated to.

(09:03):
It's super easy. Even a dumb guy like me can
figure that out. And so I just go over there
and I throw a little bit of air in it. Well,
what's dumb about all of that is you're you're Because
here's the other thing. I get a text message and
an email and a notification in my car if my

(09:26):
tire pressure is low. It's like I don't have a
nagging wife in real life. I really don't, but it's
I think for those who have had to deal with that,
I think it feels like that. It's like, Hey, your
tire pressure is low. I check my email. Did you
know your tire pressure is low? Then I get a
text message, Hey I told you twice, well.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Stop giving your car your phone number an email.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
I don't think I did. It, just knows, fix just knows.
So I'm like, all right, let's just take a second.
Go in here, unscrew the valve cap and pop the
thing up there. I want it inflated to this PSI,

(10:11):
and I turned the thing on and I start, and
the first thing that happens is my car says, your
tires only inflated to twenty two, which is very low.
So then I put the thing in there, and the
machine will automatically first tell you how much what the
PSI is for your tire at that time.

Speaker 4 (10:33):
Thirty one.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
It's overinflated.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
No, no, it needs to be a little higher than that,
not much, a little higher. And so I'm like, all right, Well,
the first thing is this is stupid, and I know
that in fluctuating temperature like this, these little tire gauge
things are pain in the neck. So I pop a
few extra pounds per square inch of air in there,

(10:57):
and the Carlo the notifications turn off. My tire explodes,
and I make it to work. But what's the purpose
of the story? I forget, I forgot, I forgot. No,
the purpose is I was only outside of my car
this morning for I don't know three minutes. I still

(11:19):
can't feel the left side of my face. It is
dangerously cold.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
I think people say that so much that when you
hear it and it's real that you don't really think
about it, and you're absolutely right. I was out there
for Oh, I just went to get the mail yesterday
afternoon when it wasn't even this cold.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
Why'd you leave him outside?

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Well, because he made me mad.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Anyway, Yeah, he made me mad again, so I had
to put the mail outside, so you went to go
get him. He was out there by the mail box,
just where the mail goes.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Yeah, it wasn't even as cold then yesterday afternoon as
it is now, and I thought that this was not
the place to live.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yeah, there's a great meme that says, the wind hurts
my face. Why do I live someplace where the wind
hurts my face? Right now? You can say that about
the air. It's that's the great thing about this is
it's not windy, but just even just a very slight
breeze that hits your your exposed flesh, very dangerous. And

(12:35):
you got the stories hear in the local news about
police picked up this guy who was out on the streets,
and then the story the other day about someone that
decided to go and hang out in a dumpster to
try and stay warm, and they found him when they
were unloading the contents of the dumpster into the trash truck,
and usually the trash that's in a dumpster doesn't go ye,

(12:59):
so they knew that there was a guy in there.
So this story here from KMTV three news Win Yes, No,
it's now. KMTV three News now has a story where
they asked the mayoral candidates, what are you going to
do about homelessness? Well, one of them gave an answer,

(13:21):
but he didn't address and they didn't ask him, apparently
about the Facebook post from someone who's very close to
this issue here in Omaha. I'll tell you about it next.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Scott Voices News Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
We've got an issue at one hundred and forty fourth
in Pacific.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
I have not heard anything more about it, and I'm
not seeing any delays through there, so I'm going to
since it was just a property damage, I'm going to
assume that that has been cleared.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Okay, you say property damage, I think someone crashed into
a house, because that happens once too.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
Well, your car is property, I.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Know it's car crash, fender bender.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
We have to go through this again.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
I have to explain to you until you get it right, yes.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Until I get it right. Can you get it right,
I'll get back to you.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Then we had a guy picked up in the area
of twenty first in Nicholas, that's down there by Creighton
and he was on the streets for quite some time
yesterday and he but hospitalized for exposure. Hopes that that
person's going to be okay. And then the big story
last week about a guy who was trying to find

(14:35):
warmth in a dumpster and they found him when they
were unloading the dumpster. So KMTV three News Now had
the story about homelessness in our community. Stats are They
say about sixteen hundred people are homeless, and that number
appears to be growing. According to the US Department of
Housing and Urban Development, Omaha ranks one hundred second, or

(15:00):
the number of people experiencing homelessness. However, per capita, we
jump from one hundred and second to twenty first. We
have a problem with homelessness. The shelters are especially this
time of year when the weather gets like this, the
shelters are overflowing. Omaha always steps up to help people

(15:23):
who need that help, but it seems to me that
the city's policies on homelessness make the problem worse, not better.
Look if someone is a danger to themselves. We deal
with it if someone's having a mental illness episode, especially
if that's time and time again and they end up

(15:46):
being a danger to themselves through whatever means it is
dealt with. To me, I don't really see a difference
and I have a mental illness episode and I'm brandishing
a weapon, and we deal with that because that person's
clearly a danger to himself, versus I have a mental

(16:08):
illness episode and I'm living on the streets and by
the streets. I don't just mean this little area around
the Sianna Francis House in downtown, which is where you
find the most people camping out. You'll find people under overpasses.
We've gone into areas where you'll find some hedges really

(16:29):
close to some buildings that you drive by every single
day in West Omaha, and you'll look in there because
people will call law enforcement and say I think there's
a guy living in there, and we'll go look in
there and they'll find you'll find evidence that someone's living
in there. I mean, it's it's everywhere you drive by,
some trees, even areas where kids are riding bikes and

(16:52):
playing in there, there are people living in there. It's
all over town and it seems like the city's pos
We go out there and say, here's a tent, which
pacifies the problem when someone is clearly a danger to
him or herself. But we don't want to criminalize homelessness. Okay,

(17:18):
then we just have people living and dying on the streets.
I don't think it's a great policy. I think a
better and more common sense, stringent approach would be best.
So KMTV talked to the mayoral candidates mayor stother did
not get back to them, but Mike McDonald said, we're

(17:41):
the fastest growing city for homelessness in the country. I
don't know that that's true. I don't know it sounds reasonable.
I don't know, fastest growing city for homelessness in the country,
probably not this week. But he says, currently we have
people living under bridges, tents, cardboard boxes, and most recently
in a dumpster. That person was almost killed last week.

(18:04):
So we have to approach homelessness different and the homeless
people make sure they have the opportunity to get the
services that they dearly need right now. And they say, okay,
what would that mean? He goes, well, I want to
approach it like a FEMA type approach where you have
a designated area where people can go and they can camp,
but there's also services available. Okay, where is that. It's

(18:25):
got to be close to some metro area because at
some point they're going to wander off and go try
and find this or that or panhandle or whatever. So
your idea is we just give them a place where
they can camp outside. That's I don't think that's a
good policy. Other candidates John Ewing Jasmine Harris say well,

(18:48):
we need to have affordable housing. Oh okay, I've tried
snapping my fingers and making that happen for the benefit
of everybody. So you got someone who has nothing and
no skills to get them something, and the idea is
affordable housing that they still can't afford.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
I'm no expert, but I think a lot of people
that are on the streets don't want to be in
a house.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
Then there are the people who say this is how
I want to live. Okay, good luck to you, sir,
But then you had this. This was posted on Facebook
over the weekend by Tamara Dwyer. Tamara is Omaha's homeless
services coordinator. The aforementioned person who directs the here's a tent,

(19:38):
you know. And I should point out Tamara doesn't make law.
She just deals with the fact that homelessness is not illegal.
It's illegal to squat on someone's private property. But even
the City of Omaha doesn't do a whole heck of
a lot for that. We need to be cleaning out

(19:59):
this encampments a lot more than we do. So you
know Tamra who we've talked to, she's been on this
program and I like her. I think the city's policy
just it should be a lot lot stronger. Well, she
posted this on Facebook. She said, imagine you go to

(20:21):
a meeting first thing Saturday morning. This was posted on
Saturday morning this past Saturday. Imagine you go to a
meeting first thing Saturday morning to hear from a politician
running for office because you're curious about what he has
to say about things you are interested in and had
dedicated your life and career too, only to hear him
talk stuff about you specifically and say you are basically

(20:44):
worthless at your job, have no expertise and just a
DEI hire. But this person has never met you or
talked to you, and had no idea what you look
like as you were sitting right in front of them
in the room. Who attacks a person who is a
public servant, not a politician they have never met and
know nothing about. Someone who has no integrity, That's for sure.

(21:09):
What a way to start my weekend. That was posted
on Facebook by Tamara Dwyer. Well who is she talking about?
She went back later and said, edited to add this
post is referring to Mike McDonald, who is running for
Omaha mayor. Unacceptable for any mayor or candidate or mayor

(21:29):
in any city.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
So she won't probably be voting for him.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Well, let's add a couple of layers to this story.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
One, Tamara Dwyer works for the City of Omaha. Her
boss is Omaha Mayor Jean Stothart. Mayor Stothard is also
running for in this case, reelection, and she and Mike
McDonald are not getting along. Does that mean that this
didn't happen. I have no reason to believe that it
didn't No comment from McDonald. I'm sure we'll ask him

(22:01):
about it at some point next time he's on the program.
He may have said this, and then there's an initial layer.
I mean, some of the stuff he said you know,
saying that someone is is a DEI hire or whatever. Don't.
I don't think that Omaha marriage Geene stoters walking around

(22:23):
going here's a DEI hire, here's a d I mean
you hire. She seems like the kind of person who
hires people for the job who are best suited for
the job. But like I said, the city's policy when
it comes to this issue is pretty bad, and they'll
probably say, well, state, local, federal law, whatever doesn't allow

(22:46):
us to do any more than this, so we do
all the best we can. Okay, be that as it may.
I think McDonald's comments, if he did make them, is
shared by a lot of people in Omaha, which is
just frustration at the situation. I also think if McDonald
gets elected, Tamra Dwyer probably won't be Omaha's homeless services coordinator.

(23:11):
But based on what Mike is saying here about well
we got to give him a place to camp. That's
kind of what we're doing. Now, where are we going
to get people a place to camp? Back at the
Gene Lahee mal Ron email says let the homeless camp
in Mike McDonald's backyard. Well, I'll ask him, and then

(23:31):
Donna thinks that I have a bad gall bladder. See,
this is why I can't. You guys are worse than Google.
One of you is right, though, that's the thing, you know.
I had the really bad issue with let's call it
heartburn yesterday and people email, go, you're having a heart attack,
you have a gallbladder issue, you have gourd. I can

(23:54):
tell you I don't have gerd, and I'll tell you
why because I will never admit having something called gird.
Just no chance.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
Don't be a judgy hater.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
I might have gourd, but I will never I will
never admit to having anything like that. It's just what
a terrible name for whatever, and the heck that is
so I don't know. People are like, well, you've got this,
you got that, You've got you've got cancer of the

(24:27):
ginger vitis. I'm like, I don't know, I don't even
know if that's a thing. But one of you is right.
But you guys are definitely worse than Google. You ever
type in your symptoms into Google and it spits out like,
you know, I don't know what's going on with There's
an area just kind of below the back of my

(24:48):
left shoulder and it's just been really really painful for
a while. See you type it in there like pain
and left shoulders like shoulder cancer.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
Wow, I like the one that says you been stabbed.
Oh thank you.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
Yeah, well, let's go over some symptoms here. It is
it possibly you slept on it wrong. Yeah, maybe you've
been stabbed recently. Oh yeah, forgot about that stabbing. I
always forget about the stabbing.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
It is easy to forget.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
Yeah, So in talking about things that are out there
in these elements in the streets, whether you're trying to
put air in the car, who was it that sent
me this? This is unsigned that said. This is a
pretty popular meme where it showed the tire PSI in

(25:41):
the car was to ninety three, ninety seven, ninety six,
and ninety four. And the joke is the guy asked
his wife, why in the world did you feel the
tire to ninety seven. She's like, well, I was trying
to get it to one hundred one hundred percent, one
hundred percent inflated, so I filled it to ninety seven PSI. Ah, wives,

(26:05):
they're the worst. All right, I'm kidding, I'm kidding, totally kidding.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
Scott at kfab dot com.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
My wife knows how to get a hold of me.
I don't.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
I was talking to all the other ladies. You've just offended.
Oh they they know you feel that way. They this isn't.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
New, I know. Oh yeah, things out in the elements.
So I drove by guy's house today.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Guys, Yeah, just a random guy.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Well, that guy's house. I drove by that guy's house,
and I notice that out there at the end of
his driveway. And I don't know that I would have
noticed this before, probably not, which which is the first
of the questions. How long have they been there? Let
me tell you what I saw, about a half dozen

(26:59):
long and leafback now at this point almost completely covered
in snow. So they've been there since at least I'd
say a couple days ago, maybe yesterday, And maybe they blew.
Someone blew the sidewalks and the driveway and the snow
got on the lawn and leaf bags.

Speaker 2 (27:19):
So they have to have been there since November.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, that's that's the thing. Either they've been there since
probably December, because the time when the city will for
free the group that contracts with the city was at
FCC Environmental that contracts with the city to pick up
your lawnen leaf bags for free without buying the stickers

(27:42):
and putting them on the bags. That time ended late November.
Perhaps that's what I meant, late November, maybe early even December,
but I know it's not in mid February, so maybe
they've just been there the whole time, which then begs
the question, because I drive this route every single day,
did I just not notice them throughout the entire year.

(28:05):
Probably not. I wouldn't drive by someone's house sees a
half dozen lawn and leap bags there at the curb
and think anything about it. But I'm guessing the guy
who lives there noticed them. So let's say they've been
there since early December. They've been there for two and
a half months. What is this guy thinking. He's like, well,

(28:29):
I'm just gonna, you know, if the city's gonna be
stubborn about picking them up, I can out stubborn in
the city. I will just leave them there until they
collect them. When do they collect these things again, Well,
there's a little pickup in the spring. Great, that's coming
right up. I'll just leave them out till then. So
he's just kind of out stubborn the city by leaving
these lawn and leap bags there for another month or two,

(28:52):
so that's scenario number one. Or maybe he just hasn't
noticed he put him there at the curb.

Speaker 2 (29:02):
Well not now, or he's called covered in snow.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Or he's calling the city every week once again. They're like,
all right, Paul is back on the line once a.
I don't know how many times I have to tell
you guys the lot of sir, We've told you before.
The collection time for picking this stuff up has expired.
We're not going to pick them up. And someone has

(29:25):
to have the conversation with this guy every single week,
which I think is hilarious. So and that person who
works for the city or the trash company or whatever knows,
like whatever his trash day is. Let's say it's Wednesday.
You know the trash usually picked up by about this
time on Wednesday, And so right after the office opens

(29:48):
at nine, you see the little blinking lot on your
phone and go there he is again, like clockwork, Hello, FCC.
I told you before, sir, we have We've had this
conversation for the last eight weeks. We're not gonna pick
You can buy the stickers and put them on there.
Then we'll pick them up.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Why at this point, why wouldn't somebody start putting those
bags into the regular garbage containers, those big bins that
they give out. Sure, okay, one a week or whatever,
you could probably do. I mean, it's gonna sit there anyway.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
You could probably do two a week. Probably shove a
couple in there. So if they've been there the whole time, yeah,
all of that's totally reasonable. You find another way, or
at least you say I missed the time, and maybe
you just take them and you put them someplace in
your backyard or something. Not this guy, You're gonna leave
him there. But it's also possible that these are there

(30:46):
in a new way. So when did it snow.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Saturday morning?

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Was that when we got the the biggest well.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Friday night, I suppose LATERI tonight into Saturday. I know
my stuff got canceled on Saturday.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Yeah, I'm trying to remember last week. It didn't we
didn't get the big snow last week. It didn't really
snow until Saturday. Is that so?

Speaker 2 (31:16):
So the guy, I know, it's all blending together at
this point.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
So the guy last week was like time to clean
up the leaves, the weather wasn't real great last week.
I guess I can measure this out by when's the
last time I was out hitting golf balls. It's been
a while, like a week and a half. That's a
long time for a menu.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
That's right. I forgot you were talking about golf yet,
so that would be a little while, right.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
So sometime I guess a couple of weeks ago, he's like, well,
and I always wait until after Groundhog's Day to clean
up the yard. And so he cleans up all the leaves,
puts him in the lawn and leap bags. Put the
lawn and leaf bags by the curb, thinking this is
perfectly reasonable. The city's gonna pick him up. And since
then they've been buried in snow and they're still there.

(32:06):
What exactly is his game planned at this point? Or
maybe he did it in the last few days, And
that's what led me to wonder. I wonder if he
put snow in there, I don't want it in my yard.
It's gonna look like trash. So I've put the snow
in the lawn and leaf bags, and the city comes

(32:28):
and picks up the lawn and leaf bags with the
snow in it.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Brilliant. Yes, actually brilliant. Right, but has his driveway and
sidewalk been shoveled?

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (32:38):
Okay, so it's not a well being a well checked
on this guy or anything.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Oh that's a good question. I hadn't considered that.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
Maybe maybe or or some of the other neighbors have
just been doing his or his driveway in sidewalk.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
Yeah, he might contract with a kid come over and do. Yeah,
you're right, this guy's.

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Day and nobody's heard from him.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
This guy's dead.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
See, and you were upset about the trash.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
I wasn't upset. Just have a lot of questions.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
You do have a lot of questions.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
The guy might be dead. Now now I'm a little
freaked out. So what do I do? Do I call
the police and go someone might want to check on
this guy.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
I think they're going to be contacting you at this point.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
Well, I didn't kill him.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
I didn't mean you killed him. Somebody needs to check
the contents of those bags.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
Now do you think he's in the bags. Now that's
a whole different twist on this, isn't it. My phone
must think I'm crazy.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
Well, it wouldn't be alone.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
Yeah, because these are the kind of reminders. I leave
him for a message like remind me in a couple
of hours, talk about a half to and snow covered
lawn and leaf bags, and my phone must think I'm nuts,
like other people talk to their phone and say, remind
me at one o'clock this afternoon to get some milk

(34:11):
on my way home. Perfectly reasonable, My phone says, remind
me at eight forty five tomorrow morning talk about the
black tooth Fairy, which was a riff from Monday show
that people are still emailing me about going. I don't
know how you're still working at the radio station after
talking about the black tooth Fairy, because apparently talking about

(34:35):
I got to do the thing again. It's not a
racist joke. It has it involves race, but it's not
a racist joke. I'm just saying. There was a weird
black rock in my house. My wife decided to keep it,
and she put it up on the counter and it
looked to me like a black tooth, So I said,
are we supposed to put this under the pillow for

(34:56):
the black tooth fairy? Which then I was talking to
my wife saying, well, because she's looking at me like
like you are right now? Like I'm nuts, And I said, now,
I don't know if that's a tooth fairy, the tooth fairy,
the tooth fairy who also collects black teeth, like the
blacktooth Fairy, the fairy of black teeth. It could be

(35:17):
you put it under the pillow for the blacktooth fairy.
I'm not seeing the tooth fairy. I don't know what
raise the tooth fairy is. It could be the black
tooth Fairy is a a black tooth fairy that only
collects black teeth from all people. Or it could be
the blacktooth Fairy is a blacktooth fairy that only collects
teeth from black people. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
Well most of those live in England, though, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
So I said that on the radio the other day
and people are like, you should be fired. Well what
why do.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
These people not understand that teeth turn black when they die.
When you think about it, when, especially when you're a
kid and you get hit in the mouth whatever and
you lose, that turn black.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
First, you say, when the tooth died.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
When the tooth died?

Speaker 1 (36:06):
Oh yeah, yeah, I know, Yeah you don't. You don't
want a dead tooth, No, I like what Saturday Night
Live did the other day. They they had Tom Hanks
come out and do the in memoriam segment, and I thought, ah,
you know Farley, Norm Belushi, Oh, this is the yeah,

(36:29):
Phil Hartman. I mean, we're gonna watch some of these
great bits and we're all gonna cry. But that's not
what it was. It was the It was the snl
in memoriam on some of the racist stereotypes that they've
done that have not aged well. And and Tom Hanks
said like, look, I know that a lot of this

(36:50):
stuff was in bad taste then and it's certainly in
bad taste now. But you laughed, so shouldn't you be canceled?
And I thought that was funny, But then I also
realized it's like when he's saying you, he's talking about
people our age. We watched it throughout the seventies and eighties,
early nineties, We watched all these bits. They were funny.
You know. What was interesting was that Eddie Murphy and

(37:13):
Whiteface that bit, which is a great bit that didn't
end up in this thing. That was fine, but be
that as it may. You know, we laughed at it
because people could get together and laugh about this stuff.
Young people today, they didn't laugh at it, and they
wouldn't laugh at it now, and they probably thought it
was in really really ugly taste to laugh at it

(37:36):
in this way again during the SNL fifty special this
past weekend. So when Tom Hanks said you laughed at it,
he wasn't talking about someone who's currently twenty two years old.
They don't think anything's funny, that's true. So there are
people say L es and L needs to be canceled
because they did this years ago. Is that's how that

(37:58):
all operates? So I bring up, you know, a question
about what the phrase black tooth fairy means and refers to,
because I have a lot of different scenarios that run
through my head and they have to come out of
my mouth and onto the radio otherwise what's the point.
And people say, well, that's I don't know. I just
don't like it. You're not allowed to say any.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Of this stuff that sounds like me talking right, Well,
I just I don't like.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Any of this, which only makes me want to say
it more.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
Scott goes there you know it.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Lucy suggested that maybe he is cut up and in
the London leaf bags.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
I did not say that.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
Only wants to know if the house has a name
on it that says it's the Cloakpex House. So there's
your eighties movie recorence is with this segment of the
radio programs. You're getting it, You're getting it the birds? Yeah, hey,
how is closed? If you could do a half a ding,

(38:56):
I would take that happening. There you go, half a ding,
a quiet half day. That's Lucy. I'm Scott. And Angie
says that I might have a gimp gall bladder. It
goes back to the heart heartburn issue. Everyone's trying to

(39:17):
diagnose my my heartburn problems I had yesterday. And Angie
suggests that maybe I have a gimp gall bladder?

Speaker 2 (39:26):
Can you say that.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
She did? Yeah? Mary Emails says, can I borrow some
money from you? Did I say anything in the last
hour about how I'm just handing out money or whatever?

Speaker 3 (39:39):
Well?

Speaker 2 (39:39):
No, but if you know, if you've got you're going
to have a heart attack, then she wouldn't have to
pay you back.

Speaker 1 (39:44):
Oh maybe that's what she meant.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
So you're gonna have to talk to your wife about
making sure that the estate will demand that money back, right.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Cynthia erevo. Is that how you pronounce her name? Do
you know who that is? I don't, Oh you should.
She's a big deal.

Speaker 2 (40:03):
Is that the new Disney princess?

Speaker 1 (40:07):
Whatever kind of it's the actress who plays Alphaba, the
Wicked Witch of the West in Wicked the movies.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
I see so she.

Speaker 1 (40:17):
I see here on the Daily Wire has been picked.
She's got a new performance coming up and for several
live performances at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles this summer.
The actress who is a black woman has been picked
to play Jesus in the musical Jesus Christ Superstar. Because

(40:40):
it's crazy and it's edgy and it's you know, so
I and I applaud them. I know you're thinking, like
Scott that you're gonna you're gonna go on a pretty
bad talk radio round here. White guy doesn't like that
all this. No, No, I think it's great. I think
it's fantastic. And I encourage you if you really want
to be edgy. I mean, because let's face it, so

(41:03):
many people, especially Hollywood's just been mocking our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ for so long. If you think about it,
it's really not that edgy. Anymore. I think that they
should do Mohammed Superstar and she could play Mohammed and
let's see how that. I mean, that would be real edgy,
wouldn't it. Why don't you do that? Give it a shot,

(41:24):
see how that goes for you.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
Well, the mocking of Mohammed would get you immediate results,
shall I say?

Speaker 1 (41:33):
But yeah, they'll have a lot of people at that performance.

Speaker 2 (41:37):
But yeah, but trust me, those that are mocking God,
they may not be getting any repercussions from it this moment, Yeah,
but they will.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
I don't know that. I mean Jesus Christ Superstar. That's
and Andrew Lloyd Weber show.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
Yeah, I don't think that that's, you know, like the
most religious no anyway.

Speaker 1 (42:01):
So I don't know how blasphemous it is. And frankly,
I don't know that. I really want to find out
because there's really good music in it. There are some
really good songs in there. Isn't that that's Mary Magdalen
singing I Don't Know How to Love Him, which is
a really really good song.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
It really is.

Speaker 1 (42:21):
It might be part of a I don't know. I
don't know. I don't know. But if they want to
be edgy, I have given them a clear path on
how to do so. And just in case anyone is
listening right now sharpening their blades, I would not go

(42:42):
see that show, the Mohammed Superstar Show, just in case
you're like, all right, sharpened to my blade. Nope, that's
not a show for me. But if they want to
be edgy, then why don't they go ahead and try that?
You know, why not? It's been a couple of cold,

(43:05):
snowy days. I've been letting these stories pile up because
I didn't really feel like I wanted to get into
a political diatribe kind of do oh boy, not kind
of do. I kind of do, but most of the
stuff I do with a smile on my face, it
might look maniacal, like Willem Dafoe. Let me tell you

(43:29):
about this story, like, oh, he doesn't sound like he's happy.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
Well he doesn't ever not look Yeah, maniacal.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Yeah, there is a story here, and this is the
local version of it. But I think probably every city
has the local version of this story because it's all
part of something I've been telling you about for a
few weeks now. They they want to try and make
Trump look as evil and maniacal and as much like

(43:59):
a or an emperor as possible. Now, the flip side
on that is there are a lot of Trump voters
who are totally fine with that. But it's really subtle
stories like this. This particular story has got it. It's
from KMTV three News Now, and it talks to some

(44:21):
local people. Here's someone who operates a daycare on Florence
Boulevard and she says, well, we just talked about June
teenth and Black History Month, and then we talked to
Preston Love, described here as a long time north Omaha advocate.
I thought he was a new senator from Nebraska. Did
he not win in November? Let me check? Oh he

(44:44):
got smashed. Oh shoot that's right, that's right, he got whooped.
Turns out no one knows him west of ninetieth Street
and Omaha, and I guess if you're running for statewide office,
there's a lot of Nebraska West and ninetieth Street. Sorry, Preston.
I love you, buddy, you know I love you. I'm
just joking with you. I do, honestly, sincerely love Preston Love,
who is a longtime north Omaha community leader and advocate.

(45:09):
And he's talking The story is about how the Google
calendar holidays don't include all of the holidays. They said, look,
we stuff like Black History Month, Hispanic Heritage Month, Juneteenth,
Holocaust Remembrance Day, LGBT Pride Month, and all the rest

(45:30):
of this stuff. We we don't have all of them
on the Google calendar. There's just not that much room anymore.
And so people, you know, media outlets are talking to,
in this case, a couple of local black community leaders
who are looking at this saying it's Trump. It's either
Trump telling these businesses they can't do it because it's

(45:53):
too DEI, or it's businesses try to suck up to
Trump by trying to eliminate things that might be seen
as DEI diversity, equity inclusion, to try and suck up
to Trump and all of the Trump voters since he
won the popular vote. And this is apparently the racist
way America is anymore. Okay, A couple things on that

(46:13):
this is the same voting population that voted for Obama twice.
In fact, I think that these community leaders who have
been quoted in all these news stories would probably be really,
really fascinated to learn that there are a lot of
people in this country who voted for Obama twice and
also voted for Trump last November. Because it's not about

(46:35):
black and white. It's about green, it's about what happened
with the economy, it's about it's about America standing up
for that red, white, and blue that Democrats used to
fly as well. It's not about black and white. So
it's so we have the story here that says, well,
now even the Google calendar doesn't have Black History Month.

(46:58):
This is terrible Trump and there's Trump all over the story.
One thing, one thing here. Google made this decision last year,
last summer. I think it was made in June. When
was the election last year? It was in November, Right,
we do that in November. I still do that in November. Okay.

(47:18):
So Google made the decision last summer to eliminate some
of the cumbersome holidays from the calendar, because on any
given day, you've got like eighteen things federally recognized on
that day in some states have different things. We got
to add that stuff. So they said, all right, we're

(47:38):
just we're we're not putting all of the stuff on
the calendar. You know what the calendar says, Wednesday, February nineteenth,
and we'll put the stuff in there that everyone searches for,
like when is Easter in twenty twenty five, because no
one and our I've already looked it up and I've
already forgotten. I don't know April August. I don't know Easter,

(48:04):
just like I'm gonna Easter whenever I want. That's fine, Eastern.
No one's arguing with you. That's cool. I might Easter
in March, it might be May. Sometimes it is reserve
every weekend in April, because there's no telling when I
might Easter. Like, all right, Easter, I don't know who
you're yelling at. I don't know who you're yelling at. Now. See,

(48:24):
that's probably blasphemous making Easter this holiday, trying to pick
fights with people, you know, the day we honor the Christ,
the Savior rising from the dead. I've turned it into
like a tough guy from Jersey, like you think you're
better than me.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
I don't think you're the first person to distort it.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
I'm just saying. I'm just saying I never know when
Easter is. Yeah, so they've got to put that on
the calendars. But to the point of the story, the
story is here to say. And here's the first couple
of lines of the story. Google Calendar changed its setup
to allow users to choose which holidays they want to
see on their calendar. This change occurred in twenty twenty four.

(49:11):
Recently people have noticed this switch following President Trump's executive
orders regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion. All right, so you
admitted this has nothing to do with Trump, but we're
still gonna make it about Trump. Since being re elected,
President Donald Trump has been on a mission to terminate

(49:31):
divers it. This has nothing to do with the story.
And so you'd quote people going, it's an assault on
people of color in this country. No, it's an assault
on trying to add more room on the calendar. I
guess for you to add things that you need to
do on these days. I didn't realize any of these
calendars were also cumbersome. I guess. I don't use Google Calendar.

(49:54):
I don't know what Google. I don't know that anyone
uses Google Calendar. I have an iPhone. I've got a
calendar on there. I put all my stuff on there.
I have Microsoft Outlook over here. I put stuff on
that calendar. It's syncs with my iPhone. I don't know
who's living or dying based on what Google calendar says

(50:16):
or why. Like I know that it's in the month
of February. It's Black History Month, which frankly I would
love to see in my lifetime that go away. What
did you Here's why I say that because I want
our nation's history and the rich tapestry of unique individuals

(50:38):
of all different races, backgrounds, colors, genders, creeds and orientation.
I want all of that to be taught as just
normal curriculum, so we would learn about what someone like
Martin Luther King or George Washington Carver, you know, did

(50:59):
to enrich the lives of people in this country in
I don't know, September, in April, during Holy Week, I
don't know. So I mean, I want this to just
be part of we're teaching history, and this is when
we teach this history. There shouldn't have to be a

(51:19):
month reserve, the shortest month of the year reserved for
Black History Month. Just be part of history. Yeah, but
if we don't do it, then people aren't going to
teach it. They aren't the people who have grown up
in this woke educational environment. The people who have gone

(51:39):
to college over the last few years, and a very
woke educational environment. The people who now as young people
have been populating teaching positions for the last twenty years
and will for the rest of our lives. These individuals
are not going to like, well, I know, I went
through a public education in public un universities this entire

(52:01):
time and grew up during this time when people had
to really look to find examples of racism and say, oh,
this is the worst thing ever. It's just like what
we went through in the Civil rights movement. Google calendar
took Black History Month off the calendar. This is the
worst outraga. So the people grew up under all of this,

(52:22):
they're not going to teach about the accomplishments of all
kinds of different people. These are the people you're worried about.
Then this would be the kind of political diatribe that
I didn't think was necessary the last couple of days.

(52:45):
But I don't know. I'm cold and I'm cranky, and
this is just one of the stories I have. What's
the other one?

Speaker 3 (52:53):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (52:54):
Yeah, how much of this really ties into what they're
also crying about with the musk. We'll get to that
here in just a few minutes.

Speaker 3 (53:03):
Scott Voriez News Radio eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 1 (53:08):
People are complaining tying in Google's decision last summer to
not feature every single recognized holiday or month on their
Google calendar. And they made that decision last summer. Joe
Biden was still on the ballot when they made this decision.

(53:28):
So Trump gets elected. Now people are noticing, hey, Google
calendar doesn't have all this stuff. By the way, you can,
with the click of a button choose what you want
your Google Calendar to say. It is completely up to you.
People are still tying this into Trump. It has nothing
to do with Trump. The decision was already made. Now

(53:51):
it's the same people who are crying about Elon Musk.
How are we supposed to believe them when they know
that they're lying about the Google calendar stuff. And then
they come out and say.

Speaker 4 (54:05):
Elon Musk is he's gonna dig through your social security
information and take away your money, Like, all right, so
you're already lying about one thing.

Speaker 1 (54:16):
How do we know you're not lying about this? How
do we know you're not doing things to make a
situation look worse than it really is. For example, acting
Commissioner at the Social Security Administration, Michelle King, step down
over the weekend. Elon Musk was trying to perform a
performance audit of the Social Security Administration after finding that

(54:41):
there are people who are apparently one hundred and fifty
years old still receiving Social Security checks, and Elon said,
we want to find out who these people are so
we can figure out what they're eating and what their
exercise regimen is, so that we can live long, healthy
lives too, which was very funny of him to say that.

(55:02):
So obviously there's some waste. We don't know how much.
He needs to get in there and take a look.
The Commissioner of the Social Security Administration says, I refuse
to grant you any access to look at any of
this stuff. Elon said, it really isn't up to you.
It's up to President Trump, and I'll ask him, and

(55:25):
I think we both know what he's gonna say. So
she quit. She stepped down from her position. Now I wonder,
because I don't think they were gonna make her quit.
They might have found some stuff out and she might
have been fired, and maybe she should have been. But

(55:46):
if you know everything going on here in the Social
Security administration is all on the up and up, and
you're not going to find anything wrong. Then what's the
problem with the Department of Government efficiency? Taking a look?
Why step down? And I wonder if it was liberal
activists saying, look, if you make a big show of

(56:07):
stepping down and saying Elon was trying to access sensitive
information and make a big show of it, We'll make
sure you're taken care of. We've got the money. We'll
just divert some funds here. And what do you want,
because I bet your friends here at the Democratic National
Committee will make sure that you get a whole bedroom set.

(56:30):
There's your nineties movie reference for this segment of the
radio program. It's subtle, but it's there. It's pulp fiction.
So she steps down, and I wonder if she was
basically paid to do so, because what would be the problem.

(56:51):
We know there's fraud in there. Maybe you're culpable, maybe
you're not. Let's work together. No one knows this agency
better than you, right, Let's work together and find it
out for the benefit of the taxpayers and your department.
Maybe we can find some extra money, you can hire
some more help around here. I don't know let's see,

(57:11):
I just don't trust them anymore when they do this stuff.
Here's another example, the headline Republicans worry gop led states
will suffer from Trump's firings of federal workers. Did you
see that headline this week? Republicans worry gop led states

(57:31):
will suffer from Trump's firings of federal workers. I clicked
on that story because I wanted to verify that I
knew what Republicans they were talking to. And it took
me a few paragraphs. But here we are Lisa Murkowski
from Alaska, who votes with the Democrats every single time.

(57:53):
And I was like, let's scan a little further. Let's
find Susan. There she is Susan Collins of Maine, alleged
Republican who votes with the Democrats every single time. Liz
Cheney's not in office anymore, so we can't have heard
of the story. Anytime they say we have a bipartisan committee,

(58:13):
that means the Murkowski and Susan Collins are on it,
because they're Democrats. Anytime the headline says Republicans worry about
I mean Trump's doing, it's Murkowski and Collins. It always is.
But the media is certainly trying to make it look like, oh,
it's even worse than we'd imagine. It's terrible. It's funny.

(58:35):
The same media didn't show you the so called crowds
that showed up around the country on President's Day Monday,
because those who are opposed to Trump wanted to do
another rally called No Kings on President's Day, and they
had all kinds of marches and chants, Hey, hey, ho

(58:56):
ho elon musk, it's gotta go.

Speaker 4 (58:58):
Wow, that's really good, that's great.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
How'd you guys come up with that? No King's on
President's Day? And you know what happened. Trump was president
the whole day, and he's been the duly elected president
of the United States in the couple of days that followed.
It's amazing, isn't it. With Lucy Chapman and James Brown,
I am Scott Vorhees. I think that if I had
a gun to my head, not all at once, everybody

(59:23):
calmed down one at a time. But if I had
a gun to my head and they said you got
to choose the Mount Rushmore the top four best skits
in Saturday Night Live history, I don't know that I
could do it. I don't know that I could do it.
Celebrity Jeopardy, and I'm thinking about it because I'm thinking

(59:49):
about the James Brown Celebrity hot Tub Party. Hot Tub
yourta gont make the sweat, Eddie Murphy. It's James Brown,
and I just I love the intro to it, and
now hell give in the Celebrity hot Tub Party Jane Brown.
Sometimes make you bring out in the cold sweat?

Speaker 2 (01:00:11):
What two? I saw that just recently? How I'm watching
YouTube just going through stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
Celebrity Jeopardy, James Brown, Celebrity hot Tub Party, Happy Funball?

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
Don't know that one?

Speaker 1 (01:00:27):
Oh, that's great. That's one of the commercials. Do not
taunt Happy Funball. You really don't know about Happy Funball.
I know, and I don't know. Do I put man?
I gotta put something from the original cast, right, But
then don't you gotta put cow Bell in there? No?
I love the cow bell. Cow Bell's great. I don't know.

(01:00:52):
I don't know if I could do it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
One of the best skits was the one where they
had Bruno Mars just making him do all different genres
and different artists. Do you remember that?

Speaker 3 (01:01:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:01:04):
I did see that? Was that was great he's amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
I would have to put in the samurai samurai DELI.

Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
Yeah, it's just it's one joke over and over. But
it's John Belushi. But see that that was an example,
as I mentioned earlier, where they did the s n
L fifty in Memoriam segment about all the troublesome ethnic stereotypes. Troublesome,
Oh yeah, because John Belushi' is not Asian. There was

(01:01:32):
a stereotype that if you're if you're Asian, you must
be a samurai warrior who's just gonna start cutting everything
in half by yelling with the giant's sword. Well that's stupid,
of course, it's stupid, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:01:45):
I how about Satan? Can I say? I like, maybe
it was Satan Satan who's.

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
About putting church Lady in that Wayne's world? But I
don't know. I how do I not put What's up
with That? In there? I love What's up with That?
Yeah it's Keenan Thompson. Yeah, hosting What's Up with That?
Singing a song the entire time and never get into
Lindsey Buckingham.

Speaker 2 (01:02:14):
I like the Californians, which is pretty much more recent.

Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
They did a I think a Volkswagen commercial in SNL fifty.
It was an actual commercial in a commercial break featuring
the Californians.

Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
Have to watch that.

Speaker 1 (01:02:33):
That was pretty good. That was better in some of
the stuff they did in the show. But oh yeah,
they right the in memoriam thing. All the troublesome stereotypes
that have been on SNL, and like I said, they
didn't have Eddie Murphy. This is another one I'd put
in there. Eddie Murphy is a white guy seeing what

(01:02:53):
it's like to live in America as a white guy.

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
I remember that.

Speaker 1 (01:02:56):
So he puts on whiteface, goes into the bank and
you know this is after the white guy at the bank.
You know, it turns a black guy down for a loan.
And then Eddie Murphy is a white guy, sits down, Hello,
nice to see you, and the guy's like, yeah, just
just take the money, just take it. This is this
is how banks operate for white people. Just take the money.

(01:03:20):
That's hilarious. But that wasn't in there. That wasn't a
problematic stereotype. Nor was Let's say, Bowen Yang, one of
the current cast members who is Asian and gay. They
they've had him play straight characters. Is that not a
troublesome stereotype. Yeah, let me, I'll let you know when

(01:03:44):
I really start complaining about stuff like that. I'm not.
I'm just throwing it out there. Sounds like you're complaining
about it. Sounds like you're complaining about it. Now. We
I brought up some things in this hour here that
people are looking at this going this is terrible, This
is terrible. There are some things that and this is
for my friends who are not only not Trump supporters

(01:04:08):
but full on You've got TDS, you have got Trump
derangement syndrome. And I, as I say all the time,
I don't care for whom you vote. I care how
you treat people who vote differently than you. And I
long to get back to a day where we all
you know, have a beer, you know, hang out and
have some tacos together and we say, yeah, I've voted

(01:04:31):
for this person, I voted for that person, but I
keep an eye on them. I don't trust any of
those guys once they get to Washington. We need to
keep an eye on all of them, because that existed
in our lifetimes. Well if you're over the age of forty.
So for my friends who got full on anti trump Ism,
call it what you will. You should know some of

(01:04:53):
the things that the MAGA crowd is doing is just
to cause your head to expelot don't. You don't have
to fall for it. Admittedly, it's funny when you collectively
explode and start yelling and screaming and throwing a temper tantrum.
But when a congressman says I'm going to put forth

(01:05:14):
legislation that says Trump can run for another term, that's
just to cause your head to explode. You would have
to change the constitution. Nothing passed by the MAGA House
of Representatives can keep Trump in office for another term.
You'd have to change the constitution. So that's just to
cause you to freak out. Here's someone and I kept

(01:05:36):
looking to go, all right, it's Marjorie Taylor Green, right,
but it's not. It's some other Republican congresswoman, not Marjorie
Taylor Green, Tenny is her name. I don't know where
she's from. She said, we should also have a federal
day recognizing the importance of June fourteenth. And you think, well,

(01:05:58):
we already do. That's Flag Day, said point zero eight
percent of America's population. I admit I thought it was
the fifteenth, but I think that might be Bastile Day
in France. I get the two confused.

Speaker 2 (01:06:11):
You got closer to the nine took.

Speaker 1 (01:06:12):
French in middle school, high school, of college. June fourteenth
is Flag Day, but it also happens to be Donald J.
Trump's birthday. So now they're saying we should merge them
into one big celebration, a federal holiday, shut down, federal offices,
no school on that day. Lady, it's June fourteenth. There's
no school hardly anywhere in this country. And so I mean,

(01:06:36):
Flag Day is a national day observance, but not a
federal holiday. And she said we should make it both
Trump's birthday flag Day. How perfect federal holiday. Now does
she really feel that way? I don't know. Is she
doing this just to cause liberal heads to explode over

(01:06:57):
the country. Oh? Absolutely, that is definitely what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (01:07:01):
Trolling.

Speaker 1 (01:07:02):
Yeah, they're they're they're trolling you. This is pretty funny.
Ryl Crow thought she was trolling Elon Musk. She sold
her ev tesla and donated the proceeds to NPR, saying,
I don't like what Elon Musk and Doze you're doing.
And they're talking about cutting NPR. I'm not only gonna
donate to NPR National Public Radio. I'm gonna sell my

(01:07:24):
tesla and I'm gonna donate the proceeds from his car
to this program he wants to eliminate. And the head
of the FCC said, thank you for showing that NPR
can exist free of taxpayer dollars based on fans donations.
Double troll, double troll. So just bear in mind, it's okay,

(01:07:53):
calm down, it's gonna be fine. We will make it
to four years from now when Trump gets another term
in office.
